Put me down for a set of Cruiser Gulp bars if you ever decide to make.

Here are some photos of Gulp bars I took off of the web, as I was going to have someone make them for me eventually.

I prefer cruiser, because that is what I would normally ride while drinking something.

I knew this wait was gonna kill me. Here I'm thinking, "Well, it's been awhile...they should be here soon." So I go back and check this thread to see when I ordered them and it's been just over 2 weeks.

I'm right there with ya LB. I was told about two months when I ordered, but mine will be chromed. Hopefully it is sooner.

nvmyslowride
Bars are being made. I went to standard thursday and they had like 50 bars fresh from powder, but no Vbars yet. There normal bars have been on back order, so You should see VBARS soon!!!!
Larryboy
As soon as I get these, I'm gonna swap out the wheels on my PK for some chrome 48's (to save the gold Araya shine-sides and Comp IIIs) and start using that for my cruising bike again.

Love my Starsky for serious riding, but the PK is a blast to just zip around the neighborhood with my son. WIll be seriously stylin with the V-bars on it.

SACK DO YOU want welded v bars (like Shane's-the yellow and black 125) or bent like old Redline's. We were going to do them all welded but I saw a couple of requests for bent. Can you get this input please? WE have to send tubes off to be bent tomorrow so I need to know how many. If they want cut and welded we can do them tomorrow.
Let's rock.

Thanks for chiming in. I'm really waiting for a set of "GULP" cruiser bars. I can't imagine a cooler set of bars for my Schwinn beach cruiser turned BMX bike. Maybe by next summer?
Larryboy
Any updates on the V-bars?

(larry sits drumming his fingers, waiting impatiently)
Larryboy
Any updates? Closing in on 8 weeks.

nvmyslowride
There was some built both ways. the V bars are at powder and finished being built now.
sack
Should be at least 1 pair at chromer. Huh, huh, huh.
nvmyslowride

nvmyslowride
Everything is at chrome or powder. The ones at powder may be done today. Please apologize for the delay. We had a delay with the bending. All good now and we made extra of the v crossbar for quicker service from now on!

I will give you a call on Saturday I'm out for the night.
Larryboy
I was told it would be "up to" 8 weeks till I got the bars. Going on 9. Come on! There's pics posted of them finished. Ship them already.
nvmyslowride
I think they are starting to be shipped out. Just the chrome ones take longer as it takes our chromer a lil while to finish up projects. So if yours are chrome, be calm, otherwise the other bars i saw that were finished will soon be going out. Custom stuff does talk longer then normal production stuff also.

Nick
Larryboy
Just anxious. Thanks for the update Nick.

Thank you to all of you. For your business and your patience. We had to do a lot of trial and error to get them the way we wanted them so they did take a little longer than most projects. Please post photo's or e-mail them to Standard. We are always interested in seeing where the items we build here go!

Larryboy
YES!!! Finally here. This is the bike I grab when my son just wants to go cruisin around. If we're going to the skatepark or I'm gonna be doing any flat I take my Starsky, but the PK is the bike I never had as a kid and always wanted, so it's fun to just zip around on.

Maiden voyage with new V bars tonight. They are perfect! Thank you Rick and Nick.



sack
Those look great on the PK, sweet.
race_inc
That is definitely a cool ride Matt! I really like the v-bars on it.
nvmyslowride
Dope!!
sack
My chrome bars are in transit, I'm thinkin we need to have some v bar pads made. Maybe in vinyl?
Larryboy
Thanks guys. It "feels" right riding it with those bars. It had some old school aluminum v-bars that I refuse to ride cause I'll ruin them. And the Haro Kneesavers II just weren't right.
