Is this what it could have looked like before conversion?



When you say banana seat, it sounds like my Schwinn Stingray I had when I was a kid. This was back in the early 70's. I loved that bike. Too bad I was an irresponsible little idiot and allowed it to get stolen. I won't even bother to say how it happened. Idiot is all you need to know. I was a little less of an idiot with my second bike which lasted me many years longer, but still ended up being stolen. So, still an idiot to allow my second bike, a Raleigh Record, to get stolen. I guess I was also responsible for leaving my mother's Raleigh somewhere because my mind was a smoke filled haze at the time. And never to be seen again. Yes. An irresponsible idiot is what I am. Or was, since I haven't lost or had stolen another bike since. But it took me three bikes to learn my lesson. That's the definition of idiot.
