Re: Just A Monark ~Update Hurricane seat 2-17~

How many Schwinn parts can a guy put on his Monark :roll:

I got this cool seat from ozzynut2 I think this can fix my "Mile High Seat-post" issues

this is just a ruff mock up planning on getting the seat even lower and level

Boy that rear Fat Frank sure gets dirty in the winter :wink:

Just a fun update...

Way back in May got this girls Skiptooth bike for $25 at the Ann Arbor show :mrgreen:
using the Skiptooth stuff for the Monark

Some of the parts...

Girls bike came with extra chain-ring had been "ratted" before at least three other paint colors on it!

Got it cleaned up... My son's like this chain-ring the best. They say it looks like a Ninja Shuriken

Also started to clean the cheap rattle can paint off.... came off easy with lacquer thinner ... no primer :wink:

I really like the original paint color :mrgreen: and it has lots of character :wink:

Still need to get my seat low and flat.... that update to come :wink:

just having a ton of fun with a very inexpensive bike!
