I have always liked the geometry of the 3G brand and decided to tackle a rebuild project when I found this bike on Craigs for $25. My plan is to keep it as original as possible with exception of the headset, cranks and bottom bracket. The old bearings, cups and fork crown were heavily scored and pitted as the original crank would hardly turn. Since replacing these parts is a must I decided to upgrade with sealed bearings in both areas for smooth riding. This will be a process as I am learning skills (or accepting my lack of) as I go since this is my first project. Some pics of before and current:
