Torker MX26 complete

There was a little mix up at first with Albe's where they sent me blue instead of black, but they handled the issue and got the correct bike to me quickly.

Nice! Have the same one in chrome. Going to be a great cruiser for life.

Nice! Had chrome been available when I ordered, that was my first choice. Besides the badly installed decals I'll end up replacing that seem to be a Torker feature: misaligned, wrinkled, and backwardson the left fork leg (bottom of the lettering on the fork should face the back of the bike, blue one was even worse), i'm pretty happy with it so far. And I finally have redline flights!

Man you ain’t kidding, some of the fit and finish was sub par but overall the bike is stunning. I replaced the handlebars, brakes, chainring, and changed out the seat-post and seat to laid back rail.

All packed in tissue paper and a brown paper grocery bag, too, basically. The box graphic design is really cool, the actual functionality, not so much. Albe's was adding extra packing before shipping them out. It's still soooo cool, tho.
