Awesome find! thank you ...I currently have a schwinn legacy w/ an HT. Was looking for another bike for rig number 2 and thought of going with another cruiser, adding caliper brakes. But this bike is spot on.anyone see the 700 fixe at walmart, 99 bucks, i just picked one up. has flip flop hub. also has small size tubes for ez mounting of motors.

Looking at this post and the picks you posted, looks like you'll remove the fixe sprocket, slap on the 44T standard MB sprocket after the center hole's been enlarged, and then put back the fixe sprocket. Do I have it correct??took the rear wheel and fixie sprocket off. the sproket has a flange nut threaded on and the sprocket is also threaded on. a kit sprockets center hole will need to be bored a little so it can fit over the flange of the fixe sprocket. the mounting holes of the kit sprocket line right up with the teeth of the fixe, so 1/4 20 bolts can be used to hold it from spining, and all can be mounted up to the hub by threading it back on the hub. looks like it will be an easy way to mount a sprocket. i'll post pics when i get it done.
If your gonna buy a bike from Walmart which I wouldn't recommend purchasing a bike from Wally world the wheel base on all Wal-Marts 26" bikes are rather short putting your important areas very close to the tanks.For a $100 bucks im going down to Wal-mart to check it out at least.
