Girder Chopper is based on a Killer Choppers hardtail underframe , which has been modified in nearly every dimension , with a 6 - in stretch , 10 - inch rise , and a 55 - degree ramification rake . Girder ramification were stretched 22 in for the visibility Thee Darkside wanted . Spoke wheels repose at each end . The front one ride without abrake ; in back , a Hawg Halters disk is used , as is a 250 - seriestire . Power comes courtesy of a 117 - cubic - column inch Ultima V - counterpart fitted with a ' snaked ' exhaust system of rules bent by Thee Darkside .
The entire bike , including chassis and sheetmetal , was then dissemble in black , which strike a sensational demarcation to the chromed pieces . It all flows together to form a chopper befitting Thee Darkside ’s mark .
