So this is my first "from scratch" build, I started with a 2005 Low Rider that I got when I was 9 years old. In hindsight this was not the best choice for a 9 year old since it had 3 inch cranks and a 20 inch bent springer fork, so the thing was 2 inches off the ground and went at walking speed so it was useless to get anywhere that wasn't a block away, but it was time to dig it out of the shed and work my magic on it. My goal was to get it to ride like a Schwinn Sting Ray and look like a Sting Ray and I think it turned out pretty good. I still need help: should I let the frame rust or keep it metal, also fenders or no fenders :?:















I look pretty slick going down the road on this thing 8)
 
My opinion? Let it rust up a little then clean coat it! :wink:
