I ended up building it into her bike she loves and adores. She needs to stop being stingy and buy some. parts I told her to buy in order to finish it to the vision I see. Since it's her first bike I just got her started and want her to feel what it's like and how it's worth upgrading her own bike.

-The Atala I was thinking about keeping. But it's too light in the front. But SUPER fun!!!! You can just pedal into a wheelie in first gear and skididing around was just hilarious fun! However I'm in love with the RSW! I sold this for $130 today.
Great journey so far. It looks like the bike bug has bitten you! It's fun to tinker with and make something old or used into something new, unique, and your own. Thanks for sharing with us. |

I'm curious as to what you mean by "too light in the front"? I'm assuming these are bikes where maybe the fit is off? From what I can tell, there are multiple sized frames which you have shared pictures of.

You could literally pedal into a little wheelie because the front is so light. SO fun! Thanks for the kind words as well. |
