Re: Rusted Huffy Mountain Bike Turned Rat Rod

Yes, they are 26 inch wheels but the back is really badly bent beyond my ability to true. If its too far gone, I will have to go visit my pile o parts to see what I can come up with. Im going to take it by a shop to see if it can be saved. If the chain i have works, im going to try to use the whole crank setup and chain guard from the ladies Free spirit as well. Im thinking it will look sort of like a fat tired English Roadster in rat colors.
