OK. So, as I sit there yesterday installing my sissy bar on my beach cruiser, I figured, wow, I've done a lot to this bike.. I need something different.
So, I get on here, and think.... These mountain bikes with a shift kit are pretty sweet. I want to ride and shift. I don't care for speed, I would get on the motorcycle for that. I just want a new project. Something else to tinker with, and then ride it with the wife and kids.
I am going to get a Schwinn this time. My huffy gave me absolutely no problems, but it was my first bike. It was what I just wanted play around with, and learn.
Now that I have experience under my belt, I want to get a decent 5-7 sped bike, and get a shift kit.
I see what everyone is playing with. I have a budget of 250 on the bike, plus I know the engine will be 150-200, plus shift kit 150-200. I was going with Pirate cycles, or thatsdax. But Dax is out of shift kits. Any other suggestions?
Anything I should know before I get started? Advice?
I'm excited.. Let the good times roll!!!
