Chromed Steel Flame, 14-speed gearing w/dual-suspension and large seat luxury – a bicycle made from a collection of leftover parts and a 15-year old frame; laid-back on speed, BIG on comfort, the bicycle for when I’m in my 70’! :)

"Flamed Green Marble Smoothie" has 70’s Suntour friction shifters (arguably the greatest friction shifters ever made), Bianchi road bike gooseneck, Worksman trike extra large saddle, Shimano Alivio rear derailleur, round Sugino 42T w/Shimano 38T Bio-Pace crank rings, Wald handlebar w/Tektro brake handle, custom laced 7-speed 20” rear wheel w/Maxxis Hookworm 20X1.95 tire @110PSI and a Kenda Kwest 20X1.5 front tire @100PSI, finally, the steel chromed flame was purchased at the Laconia Bike Week from a custom fabricator that sold chrome plated parts for custom choppers and Harley-Davidsons.

She is a truly comfortable ride and will be used as a hill climbing muscle-toner over the off-season winter months (beats sitting on the boring stationary! ). :D

Any tips??

yeah, smoother tread tires. Those knobbies add so much drag they can reduce the range by %30-%40. The Mongoose Massif has smooth 20" fat tires. Buy one from Walmart.com, swap the tires and flip it for what ever you can, the diff will be your final cost for the new tires.
