I some how ended up on this site researching some bike stuff, this was a few months ago. I have to say that I love the bikes being built in here and has inspired me to build my own. So I had this brand x lady beach cruiser and just started messing around with it.
I welded in some bars to make it into a mens, made a tank, modified some forks from a newer stingray cruiser, made the seat post, used an excercise bike sprocket, extended the handle bars. oh yea, I learned to weld on this bike but by no means would I call myself a welder. Next step is to find a proper chain cover and paint it. I was initially thinking of doing a vintage look (grayish) but after seeing Rat Rods "The PUB" I may do something similar. You guys have suggestions for colors? Gotta say thanks to everybody for giving me the customizing bug.
