I'm not sure on width's.. really you look at length of the crank arms. 175mm-180mm etc.

From what I encountered.. I removed everything plus the cups, installed the cups and cranks from my bmx bike. (profile racing cranks) I added a spacer in the spindle before installing the crank arms to make sure it cleared enough from the frame.

Old Suzuki headlamp on my Huffy Cranbrook.

Slammed the seat.

How it sits until I figure out which fork to get and how to get my seat on the frame.

Thanks guys, I'm trying to make sure I order the right stuff so I do not mess up.

Cant I just adjust the longer forks and cut the extra tubing from the tops?

I'm looking for a fork to use on my build and I can not find out if my headtube is 1" or 1 1/8". I also would like some feedback on the fork I decided to use if in fact my headtube is 1". http://bikebuyers.com/PART-FY-TPT-570.htm Is the 26" a good length where I will not look chopperish...

After some work:

Already took some water and foil to it.. bars, stem, fenders, crank and sprocket all look amazing now.

Picked this up last night from a guy who had close to 30+ bicycles in his kitchen and living room. I thought I walked into Heaven there for a minute! So I got this bike for my fiancee.. she wanted a bike and she loves older bikes like me so we are going to work on it together and get it just...

I picked this up today. Already have it 90% ready to ride. Chain needed to be replaced I pedal and a link would snap, i fix tried again then another link snapped. So tomorrow I'll have a chain back on it. Now where to begin on making it nice!

I'm looking forward to her reaction to seeing it roll out the shed this week. I need to source a jet that mounts on the front fender.
