[/quote]Can I get everyone's opinion on this look? Picture the rear tire being the same as the front. I've been kicking around this idea for a while, anyone like this look?

I like it A LOT, but with out the checkers! Whitewall in the back and all white in the front. I'm doing that next!
 
My Big Daddio. Updated picts now with decals and some kind of parasite attached to back end.

My Big Daddio. I'm waiting for the decals to be finished and then i'll upload more picts.

I'm not sure what bars they are. They were given to me by a LBS. They were take offs from something. Not sure if I'm keeping them on as I might go with some cut down half moons instead.
 
Figured I'd add some of mine to the thread, don't think I saw any with the Flying Sue paint yet.

Chopped the seat post and portion of the frame to drop the seat.
Added BMX racing bars, Chopper headlight and bracket from bicylcedesigner.com, electra townie seat, lowrider leather grips and removed checkered decal from rear wheel... mild, but more to come!

Here is my Re-Finked Steel Fink!
Took it out of the box straight to the powdercoater for a deep metalic Violet. Neon Green Powdercoated rims. Hand pinstriped. Still have the original seat incase i want to show it off. And I have one of the white fink seat and grip sets.

LOve the bike, great work Electra!
 
Here's my Jeremy! I got it as a trade for one of my bikes. It came with the apes and they will probably stay on. I am looking for an old Marzocchi Monster fork for it and maybe one of those hairpin seats. :D

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE my Boney FInger....but if a Flying Sue had been in the store at the time, it would have been a tough decision for me. They look good in pics, but in the flesh, they are so....sexy is the word I would use. I've NEVER seen someone riding one, but I've seen one in a shop in San Diego and another in Phoenix. They seem to be rare birds, which makes them even cooler. How long have you had it? Enjoy!!
 
I agree that Electra has some really cool bikes. I bought my last Girlfriend and my sister each a Townie. Me though, I wasn't comfortable on any Electra simply because i'm 6'5" so I went with a PHAT Rumble 29r. I also LOVE my Worksman

Time to repost, since my old Photobucket pics are gone. These pics are over a year old, and I've made a few changes....I have my seat as low as it'll go with that taillight, and I got wooden Electra grips for my birthday.

I like this taillight, but I'm thinking of springing for a Soma Silver Bullet, since this one is really "tucked in" now under the lowered seat....

LOVE these:

I've also had a cool old school speedo on it for over a year....it's cool because the colors on the face are green and orange like it was made for this bike. I'm also thinking of a set of TT bars, since EVERYONE seems to have the same set of apes....
