Maybe put this in the Winter Build Off....unfinished builds...
...guess I don't see a good reason not to...
Here's the "starting" point for this one.

It was technically finished but now it's unfinished because I left off 8 gears....
Built this for the MBBO with the secret intention of taking it to work to use to get around the warehouse.
That was worked out awesome so far but I really need some gears on it....okay maybe I don't "need" them but I like lots of gears .
So while sitting at my desk at work I've been contemplating converting this bike to a 9-speed.
Several internet purchases later and I've got a pile ready for a (hopefully) quick 9-speed conversion on this.
Went with a matching Alienation Anklebiter rim and 32h hub for a quick swap since I need this for work now...
Wheel is built.
Need to make this quick so I can take it back to work with me on Thursday so this will probably be short...unless I decide to try and paint it in the welding booth at work.......might want to test some Schwinn yellow for the summer build...
Getting ready to cook up some more coffee and head out for some fiddlin' & pix.....Happy New Year!!!!
