I remember as a kid growing up in the 70s and 80s I loved my Team Murray Red Line and of course Mongoose but out of them all I liked the Team Murray the best we had the gold rims with snake belly tires swivel everything for trick riding. Brings back a lot of good memories

Nice save on the seatpost. Put a velcro strap around where the gryo splitter hits the handlebars. That clanging used to annoy me on the white one I had in '87.

Schwalbe sell 20x2.6 tires ( Schwalbe Pick-Up Performance Super Defense ) which are more street oriented. Change out for those, maybe a comfier seat and remove the decals you have an awesome city bike.

You could easily ride it. There’s no rule saying you can’t. I was just trying to point out to taller riders that these are a great option when compared to 24-26-29 bikes since the 22” Feels the most like a 20” but more room for activities 👌
