Here's my "OP Roller 3i" (Townie Clone)
I just upgraded the tires and added a 3 speed internal rear wheel kit with shifter.
Its a real pleasure to ride now with the 3 speed internal hub and the extreme light weight chasis. I'm especially pleased with these Kenda tires over the stock tires. The 3 speed shifter and hub is pure silk on this bike. Its feather light and sooo easy to pedal now.

I picked this bike up at WalMart for $79 bucks. Here are the upgrades I've added:
Internal 3 speed hub with shifter (rear wheel kit) - ($115 bucks at Amazon)
Kenda Tires ($26 bucks at Amazon)
Leather Grips ($12 bucks at Amazon)
Avenir Bigmouth Velcro Seat Bag ($12 bucks at Amazon)
Alloy seat post with goose neck* - ($14 bucks at Amazon)
* I mounted it with gooseneck forward to attach it to the front part of the seat stays. This gives me an extra 2" of seat set back to enhance the existing crank forward design (Electra Townie Style)
