I guess this best fits in Alt Bike Culture???...Sorry I don't really know where else it should be..
Anyway, this is my friends last resort bike. Has a Specilized Mt Bike...flat tire, no money. Has a Haro BMX...broken chain, no way of fixing, no money. Sooo what do you do? Take your sisters bike of course!

Keep in mind he's 14. Who knows how long he'll have to use this to get from A to B. Tomarrow, remove hand brakes.

What is with little girl's bikes having white tyres?
Just be glad he did not have to start with this model:

I think my favorite part about this bike renovation has to be that the saddle was raised about 2 inches. Like it's really going to make much difference, haha.

Hey, wasn't me with the brilliant ideas. He tells me what to do, I say ok you're an idiot but ok. (he can't do anything to bikes if his life depended on it, he can barely ride one) He gave the bike to me a few days ago. I did a whole bunch of crap to it including a fake lisence plate with my name on it and an air ride seat! :eek: :eek:

Oh dang off the hook with the fake license plate that you can buy at toysrus for $2.50
zoobomb!
dang, you beat me to it! Ya'll should mail that dude a sticker or two for the bike.
:beer:
laugh if you want but with some tweaking a magna like that can be quite the performance bike. extra points for barbie pink, too!
just put a two or three tooth smaller sprocket on the back for a little extra speed and performance.
I would have kept the funky George Clinton ornamentation, tho (although I can understand a 14 y.o. boy not wanting too do so....)

Can I have some zoobomber stickers?

I don't think your average 14 year old knows who George Clinton is. True men do, and they don't kill coyotes either.

Never thought I'd have an excuse for posting a George Clinton photo:
