I bought a JC Pennys Slight-Weight really cheap at Rapp's swap meet a week ago, and I was itching to build something, so I threw this together 8) :
The forks, stem, and seat are from a Schwinn traveler, and the handlebars are from a kids bike, I think. It still needs a lot of work. I have an old Croupon Garanti Welcome saddle I might put on it, and I think that rat trap pedals would fit it better. The hub needs work too, because it makes noise. I may put the three speed from the traveler on it, but then i would have to run a front brake. I'm not sure of how I want to paint it yet. Maybe flat black or sand the frame to bare metal and let it rust (weight reduction :lol: ). Any ideas?
