lol. That's what I just said to my monitor!

Why did you repaint it so the new green paint looks old?

Get new tires, those look rather dry rotted.

I think you'll want brakes on it too if it is for SS use.... or maybe not

well, tested the generator weds night, works perfectly...and i got a BONUS.
since my rim still wobbles a bit, i can set the gen to "hit-n-miss" so i get a "flashing "effect!
worked so nice i had a car honk at me :)
best part is: i cant feel hardly any drag on my wheel when i ride :)
will get a pic of the semi final ride tomorrow

trx1. Perhaps confusion at your thread would have been minimal if you showed a before and after of the frame that you were intending to build up. (In this case, the green one.) The heart of a bicycle is the frame and using that as the center for your before picture would have made a lot more sense to me.

No way. The original post is perfect as is.
