Thanks for the compliment. The fork is the stock ugly unicrown fork that came with the bike back in 2000, although the color aint stock. It's just an Asian Schwinn, not Chicago built. I hear you about the look of the extended seat post. It's totally wrong for a cruiser, but for me, comfort and efficiency reign supreme.

You want a slammed seat post? Here's my 1977 Schwinn Varsity (66cm) converted into a KING SIZE coaster brake diamond frame beach cruiser.
