Cool, well thanks for all the info guys and I also did a lil researching myself and found lots of info on both hubs. I think I'm going with the SA hub but deciding to with a 2 speed kick back rather than the 3 speed. I like the fact that I can still maintain the clean look of my cruiser(no...

Thanks carbon, it also rides suuuper plush!

Stumey Archer or Shimano? Looking into getting a 3 speed hub, which is the best hub and what experiences do any of you have with either. Thanks.

Re: The Black Pearl Very nice build!

Hey thanks. Haha pretty cool! Pics of bikes sitting on the edge of two totally different oceans. Yes this thread has some cool potential.:) Cool Huffy btw.

Great thanks for the link Markm! I only have one question on that...what is the most common "cross pattern" for a 26"-36 spoke wheel?

Re: so my bike got got stolen Where in SoCal are you??

Imo it's the frame that makes the bike...everything else can be replaced. I have two bikes, one is a aluminum frame schwinn ruler and the other steel frame huffy cranebrook. They are both made in china but the welds on the schwinn seem a lot nicer and cleaner than on the huffy. Also another...

Yeah I have the same frame, it's pretty cool, it has a short seat tube which gives it a low look. I bought mine at Costco in 2007. Kinda miss the stock look of it...nice bikes!

Very awsome bike...I dig the fat tubing :)

Yeah I used an extra set of handlebars from my daughters 50 which ended up looking kinda cool...still deciding whether to keep the crossbar or not. :?

Thanks, how about any 26" bikes?

What production bikes (That are somewhat easily found) have wide chainstays to accept maybe a 4" wheel without heavy modding?

Yes I would like to know the proper way for measuring up for spokes. I heard of some guide that can be down loaded but I haven't seen anything like that.
