Hi everyone,
Below is a snap of a Polaris IQ cruiser which to me looks like a feasible build....the motor will be tight but my fist build was tight as well so I know how to get'R'done....also I found a perfect tank that'll fit between the top two bars....a` VERY cool tank..but if that tank doesn't fit I can always use the one included with the kit...so let me know anyone if you think it's worth my time....much obliged folks ! :)

Thanks,
Salty.shft.

Salty,
It looks like a candidate, with a few issues. That down tube is FAT and the distance betwen the cantilever bar and the bottom bracket looks real tight...and, what is that on the seat tube just above the chain guard? Is it a single speed? Check the fender brackets close if you get that bike. They look like the same mounting method that Schwinn, Huffy and several others use which are notorious for failing. Let us know what you decide.

Hey Tom,
First of all that * thing * you see by the bottom of the seat tube is the left pedal... ( I had to look twice also ).....and if and when I get the bike the FIRST thing to go will be that front fender....I don't need faceplants......and yes it is a one speed.....of course the bike is going to be outfitted with all the goodies....mebbe a front disc brake....mebbe this....mebbe that....but for the price ( $139.00)....the down tube is the same size as my Skyliner....which I used the standard assembly included with the kit....so far no issues......
I'm not sure it won't make a good build.....taking my time and doing it right ......what did you think of that gas tank I showed ?


Thanks,
Salty.shft.

I like that tank instead of one sitting on top, its perfect for an inframe bike. Will it fit though with that middle tube being there?
 
Check out their accessories pages great prices. They have the double kick stand for $10. I ordered the 26in mantis from them friday for my new kit. They were $30 cheaper than any one on the net after a week of searching.

I am pretty sure it fits.....won't know until ...if I decide....to purchase it ....but it looks like it will...the thing is there's no dimensions provided with either....the bike nor the tank......

Salty if you buy from them use the promo code at the right of the home page about in the middle to get half off of shipping.
 
BarelyAWake: Oh, yes, thanx. Now I remember... Haven't seen that top bar tank before....
Do we have a pic of that tank mounted to a bike on this forum?
Talking about tanks. I picked up a brass tank from ebay 2 hours ago. It was way to big for any bicycle lol don't know what to do with it. Misjudged the volume. It's a very nice looking vintage brass tank though...
Oh, all this beer...

A great idea just not implementable......but a beautiful tank indeed...a smaller one would work awesomely for us ....

That tank might not look too bad if it was sitting length wise with the rear wheel mounted on a rack. All polished up too.
