I just replaced my high wheeler seat with a Bridgestone mamachari seat which feels more comfortable to ride on.

This afternoon, in my quest for a mini velo, i accidentally met THE sancycles in person! After introducing my self as a fan of Jitensha Phils, the very accomodating man showed me his stash- a garage full of unique bikes!
Thanks for the tour Mang Boy!
I will definitely be back.

Huffy as of Oct. 8,2012
Added reflectors, rear LED light, horn, and spoke reflectors. Will be installing the front brake cables by tomorrow. So far, the cruiser runs smoothly with no rattles.

Rainy or sunny weather an umbrella holder on a bike is favorable to women.
Update on my Huffy Cruiser, an umbrella holder and bottle holder.
A yellow umbrella this time.

Got this Bridgestone Calmo size 22. Wheel size is 22 x 1.75 . My first on this wheel size. Luckily I had on reserved a stainless rim of this size that's why I didn't hesitate getting the bicycle. Here's the condition when I got the bicycle. Frame, rims, fenders, chain cover, and handlebar are all alloy. Single speed with front dynamo hub.

Nice to hear that. Yes, Arnold V. was a friend also. He was a friend to every cyclists here in Malabon and the near cities. He drove by my place that early morning on his new motorcycle and had the chance to greet each other. Sadly that was my last contact with him. Do drop-by when your around the area.
Sad we lost a good man. See you in Malabon one of these days please pm me your contact number maybe I can join your night rides one of these days.
