I had a ton of fun building a conversion, taking it apart and putting it back together, plus I did it for almost insanely cheap by fishing around the parts bin and learning to do all the work myself with borrowed tools. I love it and I wouldn't do it any other way, but... the bike is pretty crap by the standards everyone keeps around here. I knew what I wanted- a cheap, functional, bike that's not even worth stealing but still turns heads somehow.
