"Down and Dirty" rat-ette

[clinto141]

This lovely pile of junk, is what happens when I get a lot of extra purple parts and 3 hours of free time...A 24" womens sears and roebuck freebie frame from my LBS friend, a mismatched pair of 20" tires and wheels, cranks and sprocket from ?, apes sissybar and seat from an old hawthorne, sears grips (by chance), vintage block pedals (extra hammered and loose), conduit layback seat post, huffy 26"mtb forks, an expirienced piece of 3/32 chain, and the star of the show... an actual krate neck, worth more than the whole bike. 8)

My wife would have liked me better if I had wiped off the old dirt and grease and spiders and etc... before I let her ride it around the block.

Sweet and simple. Some of the best bikes are from what is left over.
