My friend and biz partner Carrie is Bertha's curator. She has some serious back issues lately, so this is a slight-redo of Bertha with cruiser styling and a custom-sized seat post. The seatpost tube had become ovalized so a 25.8 would slip and a 26 would not fit. Reaming out to 26 looked like it would make the material a bit thin by the seat stays, so it became obvious that the seat tube had to be made a circle again through sanding of the 26 seatpost, lots of grease and a rubber mallet. Worked like a charm. You get to see it before she does. Cheers.
