Here's my dilemma: Yesterday I found two pretty good deals on Craigslist; a vintage ladies' J.C. Higgins cruiser complete with truss rods, tank, rack, and both fenders for $80, and a American made Murray canti, not complete, for $25. I bought them both. I'm thinking I could build a "full dress" step-through e-bike out of the Higgins, OR a BMX-style klunker/strandie out of the Murray. As we all know, ladies bikes aren't all that desirable, and I'm not particularly enthralled with canti frames, they're just sort of ordinary. So I'll have to think about which one I will enter. I'll be changing the name when I decide; either LOL "'Lectric Ol' Lady," or "Murray the K(lunker)' after Murray the K, a New York radio disc jockey from my youth. I believe I have all the parts I need for either of the two. Here are my two candidates.
I'll figure this out soon!
