I traded my Sears Tote Bike for this frame and all the parts I want for it.

I really missed the only other cruiser I had, a Murray chrome cantilever that ended up in bad condition as you can see...
Mainly because the seatpost had to be welded on really badly in order to function.

Anyways I decided to make it a mild boardtracker and after riding it home I found out the rear hub was shot

Rebuilt it because I wanted to go fast and it's now exceptionally fast.

It's not finished, I plan on painting it semigloss black with a black flat pan seat. The big debate is whether to leave the rims red or paint them orange to make this a Halloween bike!
