cargo-bike project

not finished yet, as usual. its a well-worn 80's schwinn sprinter, outfitted with some baskets i had laying around. the red grips and checkerboard seat were also collecting dust in the parts bin. im going to convert it to singlespeed with a re-dished rear wheel and a bmx freewheel, and reduce the front chainrings down to just one. questions/comments welcome!

p.s. sorry for the poor pic quality, i was half asleep when shots were taken...

I love the checkered seat. Ever look at the Xtracycle website? Great concept, but way too pricey. Just build yourself a kegarator trailer and you're ready to roll!

the target market for this bike is ASU students. school starts this week for them, and i figured they could carry all their isht that they need without a problem. thats one of the main things college kids look for in a bike around here is baskets...

most college kids round here want uphill speed, they use a back-pack for books, silly kids :mrgreen: im makin a grocery getter myself, love the paperboy baskets. also love that seat, one of my favorites.
