Hello,
I wanted to get some feed back about what type of weld-on hardtail I should get for a 1974 Shovelhead FXE project I'm starting.
I'd really like 0" stretch and 0" drop. I see that there are basically two options. A regular hardtail kit, and the replica version. I imagine the majority of these kits come from the same manufacturer, and then are resold under the company's name. I know that there are some other companies that manufacture their own frames as well. Usually these are the USA made hardtails, and they are usually more expensive.
Are the replica hardtails the way to go, or is there a smaller company making a good version I should check out?
I plan to use an 18" X 3.5" rear wheel, so I don't need the widened version.
Thanks.
