I make them in a farity of styles. Monsterman doesn't like his (it's for sale if anyone is interested) but as a friend of herion Phil, it's tough to take him seriously. It's been checked at all levels & returned to him but he refused the delivery, it just sits here on a peg, but any price negotions will have to be done with him.
I've made about 50 of them over the years.

I think this bike with a trellis frame swingarm looks awesome.  I'm not sure who made the bike or the swingarm.

I think it runs about $1800 USD... One was up for sale on ebay (and did not sell) with a $1000.00 reserve... I considered it a little, but when I found out it weighed like 11 lbs. more then my S4 aluminum swingarm, nope not even a thought...

In the Netherlands there is a dealer called Startwin
Those guys designed and made the swingarms for the sport and the monster (the stock ones)
They can make everything  and used to make those trellis swingarms for about 10 years

That swing are is very nice. It has a great handmade look to it. I like it.
