You did not waste money. I wasted $150 on a new Communist Chinese bike has bad welds and bad wheel bearings. It probably end up at the scrap yard in three years.

@ I salvage and sell discarded bikes for 20 years. People like new tires. They can be had for decent price. I would not be comfortable stretching the frame myself. Cruiser tires can be a tough fit and I hate tight tolerance in the drop outs so I buy new tires

@evanswinford7165 16 күн бұрын

Really nice bike, big enough for me. I have hard time finding big enough frames. I'd tear it down and go full rebuild. Get a LaPrade seat post and new seat, black wall tires and hit the frame with some automotive tire shine. Don't change it around too much.

Like the suggestions. At minimum I'll give a good cleaning put something on chrome to keep from rusting.

I like that bike and those tires. Black wall cruiser nobbies I run those on my back up bike. I been rebuilding junker bikes left on the street in San Francisco for a while now. I'd really excited to find that bike. Take off the tires and put some automotive tire black on them, makes them look really sharp.

@@hoosiercycles6595 I was actually pretty surprised how much my “old bmx” bike was worth haha. Loved riding it everywhere as a kid -even when my parents got me and my bro new mountain bikes for Xmas. Got some nos bar/frame pads on the way right now since mine got so beat from use. It’ll be a garage queen since I haven’t rode it in years at this point and just bought a supwr73 e-bike to ride around.

Excellent job on a great looking bike. Why the choice of rim brakes over a simple coaster brake? I wish I had your skills , instead I bought a modern klunker from State Bicycles and changed out parts to my preferences.
