Farm-fresh supposed rust-bucket. Every bearing surface was serviced. A bit of polishing helps that gluttonous chrome shine. Tho i kinda like it rusty. The bars were shot and were replaced w/the ape hangers. I feel these aid the head-up-on-a-swivel riding style. Chopper bars help one stand, when pedals are at midships, heads up, with nearly tall-bike high sight-lines and visibility.

The low pressure, fat cruiser tires have been upgraded. Since most cruisers use 26"/559 mtb size... They hover around two inches wide. Oof! One can easily and quickly increase speed by decreasing the rolling resistance with thinner/higher psi "modern" hybrids and slicks. Here we have implemented skinnier "Ritchie" style tires with thorn resistant tubes.

Coaster brake means near infallibility in braking, plus it is a single speed so you are hip.

Winds up and goes wheeeeeeeee!
