Blue Cruze a.k.a Baby Blue a.k.a. The Blue Mover

Scored a 70's huffy road bike off of craigslist about a year ago for $15. Everything worked on it (for the most part) and the tires even held air! Road it around for a while but hated the road bike stance, always leaning forward on your wrists and having that god awful seat tear you a new one... I knew something had to be done.

Went in to my local used bike store for a new set of handle bars, and before i knew it, i was walking out with new handlebars, a stem to fit, a 24" front wheel, a 26" rear coaster brake wheel with new tire + tube, a blue metal flake banana seat and sissy bar, crank sprocket and chain all for $37! Another few dollars in hardware and I had myself a Manta Ray type cruiser. Hell yeah!

 

Even fabbed up some sissy bar extenders so the seat will reach my ass! Chrome acorn nuts make up for their lack of flair... She rides just fine! Think i'm going to go out for a ride right now...
