    Like a boss covering up that logo that is so hilarious or stencil whatever that thing was, also that rear pulley brake contraption kind of melted my face a bit never seen anything like that, Yes with that build you got to keep it that way there's no other choice that's very cool

    Hairsprays pretty good for putting grips on, won’t slip if it’s raining either

    Spot on Gary, those both look great with the bar exchange, I think the aesthetic works well for both better than the previous combination.
    There seems to be no exact science in a beautifully balanced bike there's a certain amount of luck, but if you get it, you just don't want to change anything. The bike I had longest and did way the most miles on was so nicely balanced, I could cycle for miles even up hill with no hands, never had another bike like that sadly !

    • @garysprojects
      @garysprojects  Před rokem

      Cheers Andy i appreciate that ! I think the swap worked out too. Ya ! Totally agree sometimes you get the bike totally balance and rides perfect!! Hard to get but awesome when it happens. Hopefully can do it on more bikes in the future. Cheers!

    I wish more cruisers looked like the way you have the giant now. I feel like companies do women's cruiser bikes dirty. Beach cruisers just don't look good to me. The frames are too curvy and the handlebars are never quite right. Hope it goes to a good home!!

    • @derekhobbs1102
      @derekhobbs1102 Před rokem +1

      Beach cruisers all seem over geared to me. The average person using them isn't a strong rider, so I fit 36t chainring from kids bike to make it easier.

      True true , I think they could make cooler bikes catered for women too , seems like everything is almost grey and black these days too
