    Spaceliner Seat Post

    Thanks, guys!

    76 huffy thunder star

    I'm just going to say, these Huffy's don't always earn respect but that bike has style. My first bike was a small, purple 2 wheeler from Western Auto and then for Christmas one year there was one of these Huffy Thunder Star "76" bikes by the tree in the den. Let me tell you that I was Evel...
