its a porter, some guy built it up and put on this crazy flame paintjob, but then apparently decided that he wouldnt really use it or something and is selling it through fluidride

yeah thats the one, the guy who painted it is crazy good. i dont know who the guy who built it up was but thankful that he did, and then decided to sell it. yeah i havent got a chance to ride it much, but from the little experience i have i like it a lot. i just want to convert it to a ss now then it should be even better

Converting Porters to SS can be kinda funky. I ended up using a shadow half-link chain and a 32:13 gearing. Kinda stiff, but you pick up speed fast... and it doesn't require a goofy tensioner. I tried the tensioner route at first and it was nothing but noise and trouble.
