Huffman I-BEAM

[CHAMPION123]

Had an old Huffman girls bike (early post war) that needed an attitude adjustment. Stretched it 6-1/2" (with Scwhinn seat post tubes), fabricated an I-beam, added a billet sprocket, Gerald 26"slick, front tire is an old uniroyal chain tread. It rides like a dream. I need to attach the old Huffman chain guard and start riding it.

O.K. guys, I'm open for suggestions on paint, striping , whatever. Thanks, Gary

I love the frame mods!

The skinny front tire doesn't do anything for me,

I think it needs a fender in the front (I'll always say that, though :wink: )

The I-Beam makes such a strong visual statement that other elements
of the bike need to be bolder to not get overwhelmed.

I think the area where the seat post is fastened to the bottom of the
frame would look good if it was filled in with some sheet metal.

Gothic peaked fenders would look good, or fenders with ribs, like the
side of a zeppelin.

Silver and red for the paint.

No, I'm really not an art critic :roll:

Please sell me this bike if you ever get sick of it

Bill
