should I build a...........

....cruiser? I have so many old bike parts, most are from old cruiser's! I have a nice set of handel bars, they're so comfortable, so wide, and just fit perfectly. Also I have this realy cool Western flyer bike seat from the 60's. All these parts are in mint cond. All I would need is a frame, I could prolly get a POS bike from walmart, strip the parts off, and put of all the cool parts I have. :talon2: I could prolly build 5 bikes with the number of parts I have.

Sure, man, do it.

No need to buy anything new at Walyworld. You can get an old frame at a garage sale. use your best parts to create a masterpiece.

Why do you care? Do what you want! I think it would be fun and like Mike said get an old junker the new fram would ruin the feeling.
