I just purchased an unfinished chopper project. It needs a front end, but I have a question.
The frame is hardtail, 10in downtube stretch, 5in backbone stretch and 42 degree frame rake. The seller said it's set up for a 12in over front end but didn't need a raked triple tree. I was under the belief that a 42in raked frame requires a raked triple tree (6 degrees plus or minus) in order to meet appropriate trail numbers for handling. Am I wrong here or missing something?
Thanks!
