Thanks for the pictures and details. I to have a fascination for G.T. frames and I really like your modifications. I imagine its a blast to ride. Thanks for posting. Gary
I had a Trek Woody and rode it for approx. 3000 miles. Awesome ride. Then I gave it to my father-in-law who is still riding it. Nice score, thanks for the pictures. Gary
Like I said , it was just a thought. I'm not that versed in aluminum alloys. I hope you can repair it and have some fun with it. I'll be watching for the fix. It will probably be something so simple....we just want to make it complex. Good luck and have fun in the process. Gary
Just a thought. I would go to a semi-trailer repair shop or find a good welder in your area that can weld aluminum. I don't know if J.B. weld would handle the stress very well. Or check with the local Harley Davidson shop. They know where all the good welders are located. Gary
I bought a Jamis Boss Cruiser 5 frame and fork at at bicycle swap meet this summer in Lincoln Ne. I added some Electra Fattio 24 x 3 on it just to see if I liked it. I've been asked if it's for sale many times this summer. It's a keeper. Yours is a awesome find and thanks for showing it to...
Awesome score. This summer I purchased a 1998 Dyno Nitro 24" just because I always wanted one. Your Kona is way nicer and rarer. Thanks for the post. Gary
I put a set of Renthal bars on my 26" BMX cruiser. I love the cross brace pieces. Now I'm always on the lookout for cool motorcycle handle bars. If the price is right. Gary
Re: Electra Rat Fink frame and forks
How does an expensive Electra Rat Fink frame and forks come up of sale individually? Did someone use the original rims and tires? Anyway, awesome score, have fun making it better than Electra ever imagined. Gary
My bike buddies think I'm crazy but most of my sprockets hanging in the wall have the teeth number marked with a black sharpie on them. Plus I take more time to get a good riding radio and just not slap parts together and then try to figure out why the bike pedals hard. Those old ratios took...
Awesome score. I love the 20" bikes. Between My wife and I (4 Electra's) and my son and daughter-inlaw (2 Electra's) and his 3 year old son (1 electra 20" inch) we have quite a collection. It's contagous..........but the 20" Electra Rat Rod is totally bad to the bone. Gary
Go to the "builds" section. And under "Huffman I-beam" see what I did to an old girls bike. It was fun to do and the bike rides really well. I need to post somemore pictures. Champion123
Awesome bike, I love the mix of color, new and old parts, everything about it. A couple of your pictures went straight to my screen saver. Don't wreck that bike. Gary
I bent a pair of Bell Cruiser Bow peddals after riding into the wind just 15 minutes after installing them. I'll never buy Bell products again. Cheap,Cheap,Cheap. Gary
I've clamped the both blades in a large vise with the threaded portion sticking up. And with a 3 foot length of pipe that just fits over the threaded portion slowly apply bending pressure. Two or three attempts may be required to get it back to straight. I use smooth vise jaws to avoid...
