So I am a huge rolling stones fan and for my first build decided to do a black cruiser with red rims white wall tires and adding some rolling stones stickers to give it a Rolling Stones theme.
I started out with an old bike a friend game to me. Beach cruiser with 80cc Skyhawk motor.

Sanded down the horrible color on the frame that my buddy just spray painted over..

Painted it the flat black color I wanted

Took out the old wheels and got some new ones with 12g spokes that my bike shop was able to get for me in 24 hours. and of course used come steel wool to spruce up the whilte walls
View attachment 52596(these are the old ones with dirty white walls)
View attachment 52599 Here she is with no motor....
I also added a new sprocket to the new wheel with a couple of more teeth then the old one. New handle bars also. (BTW how hard is it to drill a hole into the handle bars?)
