I needed a new daily rider cuz I sold my other one. I got a good deal on this swing bike. It was all original, just very rusty. The og wheels were shot, the seat..shot. Over-all it was in good condition, but I dont know what it is about myself that I HAVE to customize everything that I own...
I completely took it apart and re-greased every part of the bike. It rides better than new now. I dont have the before pictures on this comp, but Ill post it soon.
Here is the begining of the transformation,
Custom Homemade Wheelie Bar
Finished:
The headlight has a built in horn and a button for it. I didnt want the wire visible so I ran it through the handlebar. Very stealth and clean.
I was surprised how difficult the bike is to control when in swing mode. wow! I need practice. Its like learning how to ride a bike all over again. The wheelie bar works perfect. I need to keep my balance up a little better when doing a wheelie though. I was falling to either the right or left.
But there she is. My new daily rider. I thought this bike would bring me lots of fun for a long time, especially with all the fun krate stuff on it.
