Here's my '06 Electra Cruiser.

Just ordered a B190 & Brooks Maintenance Kit for $167.70 (w/free shipping) from ChainReactionCycles.com. I had wanted to buy it from a LBS, but after 3 price quotes of 1. $240.00, 2. $235.00 & 3. $225.00. These prices do not include the maintenance kit. So, I decided to order it online.

I have been thinking about buying a Brooks saddle. While doing some googling about them, I came across a helpful site called Lovely Bicycle! The site has some great info on choosing the right Brooks saddle for your ride. Here are three articles on Brooks saddles: Brooks Saddles: Demystifying...

I too chose it because of the cantilever brakes. Currently mine has a Nexus 3 coaster brake, but I recently ordered the Nexus 3 w/o a brake. I like your setup. Are those bars Kos Kruiser knockoffs?

This one is going into the build section of my storage.

I picked this up at a Garage Sale for $5.00. I just couldn't pass it up, it was like bait to a hungry fish. Here is what it originally looked like:

Sweeeeet looking '41!!! What brand of cranks are those?

THANKS!! I took her out & hit the trails yesterday! I didn't make to where I had planned, so I ended up going to the Petroglyph National Monument - volcano trails in Albuquerque. Waaaaaay too many rocks!

Nice! I like the rear bags!

Re: My try at a Klunker or maybe a Bomber The shifter works very well. I went for a decent ride on some trails down by the river today for a total of 6 maybe 7 miles, nothing to crazy. The shifter shifted smoothly. This weekend I am going to put it through a greater test @ the White Mesa...

Here is my shot at a Klunker. It started out as a 1995 Schwinn Cruiser Six. Parts list: Nexus 3 laced to a set of Sumo 26x1.75 rims (Araya 7x clones) Sturmey Archer thumb shifter designed for the Nexus 3 Renthal bars Haro mid-school stem Star brake levers Origin 8 Classic Lite saddle Fuji...

Re: Rugged Commuter This build has been put on hold for now. Going to build a Heavy Duti into a "bomber", check it out here: http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=64803

Heavy Duti Bomber Ended up selling this one. Please Delete Post This one is going to be super simple. Starting point is a Heavy Duti frame that I purchased from fellow RRB member ind-chuckz. Parts list: Forks: SE Landing Gear Stem: Profile BMX Cranks: Old school 3pc BMX Bottom bracket: 3pc...

Re: My try at a Klunker or maybe a Bomber Ok, I am finished! I will post some pics in the morning. Nexus 3 laced to a set of Sumo 26x1.75 rims (Araya 7x clones) Sturmey Archer thumb shifter designed for the Nexus 3 Renthal bars Haro mid-school stem Star brake levers Origin 8 Classic Lite...

Re: My try at a Klunker or maybe a Bomber I believe so, they are very similar to the Sugino Maxy Cross.

Re: My try at a Klunker or maybe a Bomber All the parts came in! :mrgreen: I threw on couple of the new parts this moring. Here are a few updated pics: Renthal bars from tulsacruiser! Sturmey Archer thumb shifter. Fuji cranks w/44t chain ring & bear trap pedals. All that is left to...

I know for sure that it is not a NEXT. I was thinking that it may be a Huffy Baja, but I do not recall Huffy putting that nice of components on their bikes.

Re: My try at a Klunker or maybe a Bomber Me too! I will surely post about it when the rest of the parts show up. Which I hope should be Friday. I have been tempted to mount it on one of my other Nexus 3 equiped bikes. I also decided to go with Kenda Small Block 8 tires and Origin 8 Classic...

Re: Rugged Commuter I haven't seen many around either & not too many come up on google either. I've been keeping an eye on your build. How's it coming along?
