Gonna rearrange this Ross a little, more or less the same way as back in "the olden days" . Planned so far, clean the poopy out of, and lube the wheels. Change the front "goes well with a slick" tire for a plain Jane line tread. Lose the Jr. size crank in favor of "normal" size, with a bigger front ring. Replace the fork with one from a 27" bike so the new crank can go around without hitting the ground :mrgreen: . Replace the Weimann brake system with a single Bulldog bmx unit. Extend the seat supports an as yet undetermined amount to allow for my legs. PAINT BLACK. 8) Still up in the air about the shifting arrangement.
