Here is my schwinn cruiser build so far. I just got it back from powder coating today its going to be gray and black . Im working on my in frame gas tank still but ill get some pictures of that soon. Im waiting on my black wheels to come in and trying to decide what handle bars i should run.

how heavy duty is the springer? you may want another connection point unless these are really soft springs. the standard springer is`nt all that. i have mountain bike forks that give better travel and cushion. i still use the springer on my builds, but the mtb forks seem to work a lot better in comfort. some times its hard to get style and comfort at the same time.
 
I welded mine up the same way as the beefed up ones. I was thinking of using mountain bike forks also what ones do you use on your builds.
 
Man ..that is a nice looking tank.. I got a welder last year, but still havn't fired it up yet. Maybe this winter.
Cheers
 
Would you consider making and selling those tanks for others? I have a Point Beach Cruiser for which I've wanted the exact same setup...
 
Nice build so far. Please keep us posted on your progress and thanks for sharing.
