I think I'll do something similar.
Going to overhaul this POS Diamondback, grease the heck out of everything, then just ride it till it dies.

Disassembled the pig.....hummm, The Pig, last night and should have it mostly ready to ride in a couple of days if time permits.

Had been planning a recumbent porject but that is going to have to wait.
