BAMF's 1st build Schwinn DelMar

[BAMFinCali]

So i have been on this site reading and learning everything i can for i think a year now. and i just got my 1st MB, i put it off way to long.

Starting with a Schwinn Del Mar from wal-mart (not a bad deal at $99) i went with a 66cc RAW from Productswith free shipping (ok now when i see Free shipping i assume cheapest and slowest methed there is ) not with these guys it was here in just a few days.

i dont like the rear sproket mount so i ordered one from MANIC Mechanic Parts.htm they make one thats made to fit the Del Mar(Hub Falcon cf e10)

i dont trust the stock idler setup i will make my own.

Here is my 1st build a Schwinn DelMar

Some pics of a few mods and after market items

1. cheap speedo
2. cable was rattling on fender
3. zip tied cable to fender
4. center stand
5. i was cutting a slit in my fender for my chain, and did a bad job (wrong tool) so i cut it right across i like it better like this now that its done

Looks great,i have a delmar and i used rubber under my mounts just like you did.
Im also working on making a tensioner to go from frame to frame.

looks good, but be DAMN sure your fenders are stout. I have seen way too many pictures of nasty wrecks because of the fenders getting down onto the tire at speed. Its best to just remove them all togeather

The front fender looks odd since it's on backwards.

BAMF. I couldn't really figure out what to get for a bike. I think I'll get this one now. I have a set of black RockShox I think I'll put on the front with disc brakes. I think this setup would look sweet with the rims painted brick red. Thanks for the posts. I'm gonna order that hub adapter too. How many teeth on your sprocket though??
update: I just called the local bike shop to ask about disc brakes. They said that the wheel on my walmart schwinn wouldn't fit a disc. The wheel that would is another $70. Now I'm not so sure what to do. again. I just want to make sure that I have enough stopping power, just incase.
