OK nobody is happy when they get a Kulana, they ride like dookie, like a marshmellow with handles.
Bought this for my woman off Craigslist for $45.00
The burnt orange wouldn't do so I rattle canned, $5.00, her all black, "murdered out," is the street term I hear it called.
Added a shock fork from a trash canned huffy, cranks $23.00, stem from a $15.00 parts bmx, stem converter $10.00, seat from another $15.00 parts bike, rack and grips from wallyland $45.00, basket and bungees from the Thrift store $10.00, tires from her new Dyno(freebie?), and the pedals I had laying around.
All totaled I have under $150.00 into this, not cheap enough for "RAT," status yet not cool enough for "RAD," status! After spending considerable time getting it set up right, It rides great!
I ride this daily, not a commuter as much as keeping me at 200#s! POV picture:
Sooner than later I will be upgrading the wheels, to a Nexus rear, not sure on the front yet.
The bags are all transferable so I don't count them, I never sell bags!
