    Default paughco springer question (need quick help)

    I am getting ready to buy a 2 over paughco springer from a guy. He is including the axle, and i have a stock 19 inch wheel with an avon speedmaster on it. Is the only thing I would have to worry about buying a front brake caliper? or does this conversion end up costing me a lot more? let me know thanks guys

    I assume you're switching to a springer from some sort of glide front end, in which case you will need the caliper, caliper bracket (mounts on the axle), and a brake anchor rod. The wheel spacing will not be the same as stock either, so you will have to get spacers for the new setup, in order to center the wheel.

    Look up a springer front brake if you're not familiar with how they work. It's not super hard to do, but it will requite a little bit of work.

    Also, forgot. You made need to get some springer type risers for your handlebars, depending on what you're running now.
