After a week of searching this is all i could find to start my burrito build. I searched high and low for a old beach cruiser but had no luck!

I like it. It has great lines. You could clearcoat it to slow down the rust process and keep the bare metal look. I like the full length rear fender.

I built mine with a kickstand too, and quickly found out it was superfluous.
 
aahh i didnt konw you could actually take a photo. :shock: haha

Cheers guys :D

Well i went to get rid of the kick stand, then realised that the bottom bracket was too high for it to rest on on the pedal, was going to add longer cranks but would probably end up with a knee in the face :? Also wasnt to keen on the chain so close to the family jewels...... So its time to chop it and make some changes!
 
yep, ya got lots of room to drop the bb down an that chain will sit lower so ya don't have to worry about things.lol
