Hello! I'm a 12 year old cruiser rider. I love riding around town daily to commute, go to places, etc.
So, recently, I've been in need of a new bike. And I mean a custom bike. This is my plan for what I'm going to do.
I have a local walmart near me. I'm going to buy a huffy cranbrook from there. (Yes, walmart is the worst place for bikes. I have known that forever.)
But, what I plan to do is actually upgrade almost all of the main parts.
I'm going to install
-new stem, replace quill stem and put on threadless stem with adapter
-replaces inner tubes + tires
-replace handlebars
-replace seat
-maybe replace front sprocket
-replace chain
That's my main plan. Now, I've seen the "show me your finished huffy cranbrook" Thread. I see that the bike has a lot of potential. I take care of my bikes and don't use them for the wrong reasons. I can't afford expensive bikes. But, should I do this, or should I just wait?
Thanks.
This is the bike, by the way.
