I think I will stick with the single speed for now. It came with all kinds of stuff....fenders, rack, bell, rear view mirror, etc., none of which I want. Anyone out there interested in these parts, let me know. I'd sell them for just a tiny bit above shipping cost to pay for my time packing them. Once I get more used to stopping with the coaster brake, I will probably take off the front brake, too. The seat post has the biologic pump inside it (and it works!) but I carry a tiny pump so I'm wondering if it is possible to remove that pump and just use the seat post? It rides really nicely - they hardly used them, the tires still have the little "feelers" on them. A few scratches and that's about it. I think it willl serve me well as a backup bike as long as I can keep my adult son from stealing it =). I put some much narrower handlebars on it that I had since the stock ones were way to wide for me and I didn't want to cut them down in case my son wants to use it. Pics are before and after.
