thats nice!... so my buddy has one , he told me that you can keep them moving with out pedaling ... is this true? .... either way yours is way nicer then his ....
 
Thanks, I don't know about the not pedaling thing. I have two of these the other one had been rattlecaned black, so i have it stripped down getting ready to repaint it. I'm thinking about putting a springer fork on it a making a swinger springer out of it. whats your opinion about that ideal?
 
i think the no pedaling thing works on the same theory as those kids toys they had in the 90's. it was a plastic seat with big handlebars coming from underneath that were attached to something like a skateboard truck. You could propel youself by turningback and forth and using your weight... anyone know what im talking about or what they were called?
