So I was browsing someone's build, and saw a girls Dyno frame, perfect to get her off my Glide! :)

We will be painting! Going to be donating my Glide Deluxe running gear less my H.D. 3 speed wheels, going for alloy wheels for hers. Chrome 7x I hope!
 
Paint is still up in the air, she can't decide which color.
So I am not wasting time sanding and such I started looking for parts....
This fork appeared on Craigslist for $100.00:

I wasn't planning a vertical Springer but it will fit in nicely! :)
 
She's mentioned the weight of my Glide deluxe a few times, so I will be trying to keep it as light as possible.
I pulled these fenders out of my stash....

Here's the grips, and our old mutt bull:

Bars are ordered, b.b. Will be tonight, lacking a wheel set, coaster, alloy, 3 speed is what I am going to be getting.

Because I have these tires:

I cannot wait to show off the bars she found on her own! :)
 
Here's the stem, I polished it a little:

In one hour I will know if the bars are a done deal.
 
You got me interested with the frame. Then you get a Monark style springer. Ready to see the bars, it's looking good so far.

Should be a quick cruiser with those tires on it!

Luke.

A cruiser with roadie tires!
 
I found a Dyno Glide Deluxe for my wife a few years back and she loves it. Now we have a Kustom Kruiser Too! Anyone want to buy a KK for a Christmas Present?
 
I lack bars (going to be sending an email about the snail mail), a 16t rear sprocket, and a chain.
Looks so girly cool, even if she cannot decide a color! :)

After riding it my wife proclaimed, "I will never ride the store bike again," which is a Shiwinn Roxy.
I had that moment of clarity, I put her rack, and baskets off the store bike on her Dyno.

looks good but I think luke is right the fork throws off the curved look of the bike. maybe a curved springer like my black one off the ruler.
