With those v brakes... That's The ONE!

The P2 is the crown jewel on that Kona build to me.

 

[MattiThundrrr]

I'd be willing to ditch the shock on RockRat if a canti P2 came my way. Been waiting for unobtainable parts for too long.

KHS 26” beach cruiser, built into bmx/ strandie like build. My first build in 20+ years. Paid $5 for bike. Build lasted only a few weeks, tore down for parts on another build.

Yeah, your probably right, thanks for appreciating it.

Do you have any record of the paints you used? Would love to try to make one like this for a friend of mine. She's got a Captain America pinup-style dress that is her favorite garment on this earth.

 

[Gravelgrinder59]

Sorry, thought I replied. The paint was Krylon shimmer blue metal flake.

 

[Palepainter]

Did these. While back.

Love the green one, what kinda frame is it?

 

[MattiThundrrr]

Agree. And also the red one!

It’s a 50s Schwinn. Spitfire I believe. LaSalle badged. Red one is a 33\4 Shelby.

 

[Gravelgrinder59]

Agree with Matti, Both are awesome, love Shelby’s can’t believe I missed that, thanks for sharing. That Shelby frame has the moto-bike look frame. I’ve been looking for moto-bike frame.

I have two. Came across the second frame in the Cabe. The Klunker one came out of Fort Collins CO.

Love it, like tank, is that a springer? Cant remember what Shelby called they’re springer that looks like that? Really like your builds. I used to have 3 early moto-bikes with box tanks I now regrett selling years ago.

Shock Ease was the coin phrase. Yes. It is front suspension. Its modest at best. But really does work well.
