I bought the frame and fork someone had customized years ago. It started life as a Schwinn Continental road bike. I plan to build or buy a cooler and taller sissy bar. I also plan to eventually use a vintage banana seat. Still need to add cables and a chain and a few other things. I need to cut a slot in the part of the frame where the seat post goes into, so I can use a clamp there.

Started messing with this again... I cut a slit into the seat tube, and attached a clamp. Waiting on a vintage tall sissy bar to get here. Not sure what seat to use, probably a vintage Schwinn or something from that era. Besides that I think it'll just need cables and a chain. Kind want to repaint it but I think it'll look too new against the aged chrome fork. I'll probably leave it as it paint-wise.
