You are the 1st to see them. The official launch will be during Daytona Bike Week. Precision crafted by Acme Choppers at their New Hampshire Laconia shop, these new Loop Tail frames are designed to help you build the rigid Bobber or Chopper of your dreams. The Acme crew uses only American-made DOM tubing and cold rolled plate and rod stock for raw materials, and fits all its frames with precision details like their one-piece steering neck with integrated bearing cups and hidden fork stop.
They are all TIG welded in fixtures to ensure precision and straightness. Perimeter tubing is 1.125” O.D. x 0.156” wall. Backbone and Seat Post are 1.50” O.D. x 0.1888” wall DOM. Billet CNC’ed motor and transmission plates with raised contact patches for precision fitment and easy masking before paint. Box-section backbone gusset at neck tube junction. One-piece billet CNC’ed steel retro-inspired loop axle plates with integrated adjusters and paint protector inserts. Symmetrical rear triangle accommodates 140 mmm tire and left side final drive.
Available for Big Twin Twins 4/5/6-speed Evo or 4-speed kicker, Sportster 86 to 03, Yamaha XS650, Unit Triumph, Hinckley Triumph. Choice of 30-degree rake with no stretch and no up stretch, or 34-degree rake with 1.5 stretch and 5″ up stretch.

Looking very clean, well fabricated. Good details.
Excellent work!!!
Acme has got their shit together. Quality stuff!!
Wow, very nice indeed. Details, details, details.
What I also like is that they accommodated the xs650 and Triumph power plants.
That speaks to the broad minded forethought of the team at Acme.
Smooth frame. peace
the cost is way overpriced..
How much would you suggest Acme sell their frames for, Tom Keller from Thug Custom Cycles? Not biased, are we? Seriously—I’ve seen a dozen Acme frames and I’m helping a friend build a new Triumph with one, and at $2,400 (including oil bag and battery tray for Big Twins!), these things are a steal. So many custom milled and CNC’ed details. Great design features like one-piece CNC’ed loop style axle plates with integrated adjusters. And the fork neck! This thing is clean and absolutely genius. Instead of hating on what one American chopper company is offering the market, let’s see the stellar work and low pricing Thug Customs offers.
hey Dick…. if you are gonna drop the gauntlet and call someone out (and come on Tom…. you deserve to get called out on your comment)….. at least use your real name. We are all grownups here!
They look nice. Will they be making streached neck or neck and rear streached frames with more of a rake ?
Since we make our own frames for our own Flathead engine models, I know only too well what costs are involved to do the job properly. To make a high quality frame it is what it is. I will never begrudge anyone getting what he needs for a product when it’s high quality.
where in Daytona?
Looks good….welds are nice.
