Uhl dig this bike, and I do, too....

Steve Uhl's '52 Pan. Classic lines, classic parts, classic chopper styling. Best part? It's an everyday ride for Steve. No goofy header wrap on goofy pipes, no flat black paint, no GE toster oven for an air cleaner.

Let me say this right here - this bike would have been a cool ride 45 years ago, it's still cool today, and it'll still be a cool ride 45 years from now. That's what seperates a bike like this from all the other "wizz-bang flavor of the month club" bikes out there today.

You can see a good feature article of Steve's bike in the issue #3, Sept. '07 Greasy Kulture magazine. Steve gives the story on his bike in his own words, and Frank Kaisler did some killer photography work. Better hurry if you want that issue, because the back issues are going fast - #1 is already sold out.

#3 is still my favorite. This one and Bill Mize's bikes are my favorite features. BTW, if you know anyone who wants a copy of issue #1 I have a little stock pile.
