Title: Making a frame loop Post by: merv on May 15, 2018, 06:32:03 PM https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Custom-Classic-Cafe-Racer-Seat-Hoop-Frame-Loop-LED-Brake-Turn-Singal-Light-Lamp-/222881931071?hash=item33e4cc5f3f
Can someone tell me how to make a loop like the one above if you can with a pipe bender. I want to make it out of the same pipe that is used to make the trike frames with. The pipe i have is 1'' across from outside edge to outside edge which will match my bike frame. Or can someone do it for me. I need my loop to measure 10.1/4 or new money 260 mm from outside edge to outside edge. Title: Re: Making a frame loop Post by: stinkey on May 16, 2018, 07:41:52 AM Is it just for your seat ?

Answer to Paul's question , we don't have an exhaust fabricator Title: Re: Making a frame loop Post by: Olds on May 16, 2018, 07:50:27 PM For a basic hoop try contacting this guy Merv. (advertises a lot on ebay and prices seem OK)...

Did you get the frame loop made? I'm thinking about doing something similar with my bike Title: Re: Making a frame loop Post by: stinkey on July 13, 2018, 07:36:22 AM I've seen them on eBay ? So not difficult to purchase
Title: Re: Making a frame loop Post by: Olds on July 13, 2018, 10:54:33 AM Remember folks, the example Merv linked to with inbuilt indicators/brake light do not conform to lighting regs, so are no good for anything going through MSVA.
