    FOUND THESE IN A BOX OF MISC. TODAY IN THE GARAGE. I REMEMBER THEY WERE ON A MAGNUM STROKER I PICKED UP A FEW YEARS AGO.
    MEASUREMENTS ARE 25 3/4 ACROSS THE TOP OF THE BARS, END TO END. HEIGHT IS 9" FROM CENTER OF BOTTOM OF BARS TO CENTER OF BARS AT THE GRIPS
    Bar ends are tapered.

    My apologies for the caos lock, too lazy to retype...
  2. True Torch Twosome Webco and Stroker

    Posted 8 Apr 2012

    I know a lot of us know Johnny Severin a.k.a. Johnny True Torch. Well I REALLY DIG his framesets,bars and stems.
    The Webco is about a yaer or so old and the Stroker I got about 5 months ago. The Stroker was originally yellow, after looking at it for some time, I decided to have it powdered in the brightest red I could find at my local powder guy's shop.

    I built up the Stroker with the following parts:

    Frame, Fork, Bars, Stem and seatpost are all from Johnny.
    Ame Grips, Generic headset and bottom bracket.
    Cranks are 7 1/2 Ashtabula's with an old sprocket I had lying around and a set of no name rat traps. Chain is a D.I.D. I found a length of it at a garage sale a few years back.
    Seatpost clamp is 2 1" clamps bolted up together. Seat is an old Mesinger.
    Wheels are a pair of Araya's I had powdered in Black and drilled out to accept the 105/12 gauge stainless spokes. Hubs are a Bendix large flange in black and the front is an ACS dated 77 . Tires are Cheng Shin block tires. I liked the look of them so I went with them.


    It rides GREAT. Perfect for cruising the Chicago lake front.
    Hope you dudes like it.
