I really regret selling this frame to spud. I sold it for what I payed. I've been thinking about trying to get it back. Oddly enough, I had a dream about this bike a few weeks back too. I think thats what made me want it.

I have access to a Schwinn prologue (sp?) that takes a 24" front wheel. I'm having some difficulty finding a rim and tire. Anyone have a lead on something for cheap?

Surprisingly fun to ride BUT not to work on.
Not uncomfortable, but VERY twitchy.
I never got the nerve up to lean over the front and skid.
Now residing in Sverige.
Have a tiny funny frame too -
oh, and it wouldn't be quite right if this didn't get a mention in this thread.
