YOUR IDEAS WANTED

[American Vintage Bicycle Supply]

OK so I got the frame for the auction rat and I want to know what you would like to see. I need to build something that the majority of the members would like to buy. I have a Murry cruiser frame that should have tanks on the way for it. So, give me your input on ways I can made this bike worth having...and for all the members that have no idea what I'm talking about just go to this link and it should explain it all.

and here is the frame...

p.s. I want to give our member wildcat a big thanks for donating the frame. :mrgreen:

I'm building that Murray Jetfire frame in the ladies frame for my wife. I was able to get 26x2.125s in the frame and forks. They spring out enough to fit, but the clearance is close. Full fat fenders are a challenge too, but can be made to fit. I've come to the conclusion (belatedly) that this bike may not have been a full ballooner? I started with a pile of parts, so don't know what it originally had on the frame.

450redrider has (or had) this one. Same chop minus detaching the canti tubes from the down tube.
