Yes Rafael, A Schwinn S2 wheel, went from 28 to 56 holes when I pulled the sturmey coaster from an S7, and doubled the holes for each. 55 spokes, because one lined up perfectly with the valve stem.

Thanks, im glad you like it. Yes, it started out as a Bratz, built by LowRider, when they were making them. There is another Bratz bike in Class 2 also.

Thanks KJV. I am glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks Scribble. This year I tried to keep in line with the brain bikes.


A cool reflective pic that was a bit washed out.

Retouched it with a little black and white.

You would have never convinced me purple and yellow could look so good together. Well done, its definitely a stand out.

Thanks Chad. I appreciate the compliments. I am glad you enjoyed it.

I enjoyed yours and everyone else's comments and builds.

Some credit goes to the participation with this build. Seat and a few other things were worked out as I went along. I appreciate everyone's input, it would not be the bike I made without it.

Great bunch of folks on here.

Thanks Falstaff.

It was a gamble early on the combo, but once the colors were together, it seemed to pop. I think the red hue in the paint helped the match.

I also thought Tiger'ed out the yellow seat with the same paint, helped to blend it a bit.

Thanks OJ. It does look Casino-ish now that you mention it.

This is one of my other fav's out of that group.

Bumpers are awesome! Sweet bike. Super cool color combo.

That is one groovy muscle bike.
Reminds me a bit of the Cheetos bikes.

Hehe, if I couldn't find the yellow tires, I was thinking of orange colored tires as a backup...
