Here's the go/no-go scenario I put to friends regarding conversions:

Go:
- If the frame is really hot, rare, or has sentimental value and is in fair or better condition.
- If you have tools and know-how
- If you've got time and patience.
- If you've got a funds for the project...plus a little extra.

No-Go:
- If the frame is over 15 years old and looks like it.
- If the frame is under 15 years old and looks like it's been to hell and back.
- If you don't know what you are doing.
- If you just want to hurry up and ride.
- If you are on a budget. The budget ALWAYS runs over.


Remember: There is no such thing as a free puppy.
