Well since waiting on some stuff for the Simplerat and seeing aka_locojoe's new swingbike I decide I was going to have to build another one. But going to style it after the amc pacer in waynes world paint it light blue with some flames and can't forget the denim banana seat. I decided on that style because of it being a Schwing bike and being that it was built in my grandpa's (Wayne) garage. I used a Schwinn womens Deluxe varsity and some old huffy cheap bike I had laying arround. I still have to do the some grinding a filler work before I paint but it rides great.

Nice swinger. I did one like yours from a ladies Vista with the 20" wheels. It's my main swinger and works well. LocoJoe 8) has to be the guru of swing bikes. Every time I make a swinger I look to his builds as a guide, I hope he doesn't mind. Wished he lived a little closer to test mine :wink:

Just happened to bump in to 450redrider a couple of hours ago and got to ride this. It rides great and swings real easy.

Thank you, yeah LocoJoe is with out a doubt a swing bike guru, I am really glad I switched over to a banana seat on it, and the more I ride I think I need to add a spring to help put some resistance to it
 
Well I went to Waynoka, Oklahoma for thanksgiving to ride my atv and took the Mirthmobile to play around with in the campgrounds and it was a huge hit everyone loved it, I only rode it two days out of the week (screwed up knee kept me off :roll: :( :oops: :roll: ) Then a kid across the way rode it a few times and was a natural so me being the nice guy I am I told him to take it home with him :mrgreen: .
