my intro

[roadmaster]

hey everyone. i live in yreka california near the oregon border and have been into cruisers for over 15 years. i started with a 51' schwinn spitfire, have a 62' jch project cruiser, just repainted and rebuilt my 59' amf roadmaster cruiser as an open wheeled old school roadster as well as other cruisers more modern. i commute everyday to work and back on one of my cruisers ans still own allmentioned above and always looking for more. added some custom stuff on a few of my rides and want to get more into custom parts and mods. coaster brakes and fattie tires 4ever!

It's one thing to commute by bike. It's another to commute BY FREAKIN' CRUISER!!!!!!! OH YEAH!!!!!!!!

Ahh, I'm just getting excited 'cuz I've got a '57 Roadmaster I'll probably never finish. The idea of someone riding to work every day on a '59 gives me hope. Welcome to the site!

Welcome, and congrats on cruiser commuting! That's saving the environment, old-school.

hopefully picts coming soon, espacially from my 59' roadmaster. till then, i did it up with old school "block style" 26x2.125 blackwalls, deco styled chrome chainguard from a early 40's hawthorn and an updated shimano d coaster brake and wheels painted up in original colors, two tone black and white. hope to get an old school springer fork to add more chrome to a good dose as it is. 48/20 gearing gets it around nicely.

thanks for the welcome guys. im big into the old school cruisers, custom or ?? so i feel at home.
