Our patent pending Hair Pin
Our patent pending hair pins were inspired by vintage motor cycle “Springer Front Ends.” We felt the hair pin is one of the most overlooked suspension component and could be greatly improved upon. So, we set out to design a hair pin that is right at home on the most tradional rod and the most modern build.
Since our design was inspired by the “Springer Front End” it is as if Harley Earl thought your car should be as cool as his timeless scooters.

Overview
Our hair pins are carved out of a solid block of billet steel while maintaining the look of a forged piece for that vintage feel.
This process allows us to tailor our hair pins to your rides. We have industry standard lengths, and the option to customize lengths to your needs.
We also have the option of 5/8 x 18 or 11/16 x 18 threads so you can have the choice of rod ends or bell joints to locate them to your frame.
