Okay, finally got her done! I must say, this is the most comfortable bike I have ridden. I am SOLD on sealed bearing bottom brackets. WOW! This thing rides smooth and solid. With the tires shown this thing just rolls on pavement almost effortless. I was digging through my spare parts and applied the chain guard. This is also my first build and I am very happy with how it turned out both looks and ride feel / performance.

I must share a Craigslist find. $50.00!!! Easily the most comfortable cruising bike I have yet ridden. The overall ergonomics of this thing scream comfort! The Boa G's ride super smooth. The bottom bracket pushed in a forward position is pure genius in ride comfort! I have many bikes that include my original Schwinn 5 speed Cruiser but nothing compares in ride comfort. If you can grab one, especially dirt cheap, GET IT! Enjoy!

[/URL][/IMG] I wanted to go with a larger tire on "White Lightning" and tried these Duro Beach Bum's. Looks and rides great and less than half the cost of the 3G Boa G's.

 
Love to see all these 3Gs, makes me want another one. The main thing looks wise I don't like about the stock 3G Newports etc becides the seats is those crazy long threadless stems, I think they take away from the lines of the bike. I swapped mine with a 1 1/8 treadless BMX style stem. Note: you will have to trim down the steer tube or add spacers below it. Here's a reasonably priced one I found from Sunlite: https://www.amazon.com/Origin8-Fix8-Stem/dp/B00T6OW94Q
