I'm a short guy so I used the Hyper beach cruiser myself...First with a Zeda 80 and then replaced that with a Phantom 85.
Here are a couple of URLs below showing it as a work in progress to where it is at now...The Hyper is a very good, sturdy, stable bike to build a Phantom 85 on I might add...lol.

Pics of bike with new mags and disk brakes.
Hi guys, Well its been three weeks now from start to finish but the conversion is now complete from spoke rims and rear coaster brake and front rim type brake, to mag wheels and disk brakes. Had to make the rear brake caliper adaptor from military aircraft aluminum, (the kit ones just would...
Whats the best bike for a 2 stroke?
Were miles away, but I bet our side of the railroad tracks are pretty similar. Before I found cranbrook in trash, I picked up a 74 schwinn world traveler & a 74-75 schwinn varsity people were throwing away, was going to build 1 of them, but long skinny front forks were scaring me. They can be...

Is it possible to put a rear rim brake and keep the front rim brake and spoked wheels? How did you get rid of the rear coaster brake?I'm a short guy so I used the Hyper beach cruiser myself...First with a Zeda 80 and then replaced that with a Phantom 85.

I didn't eliminate the coaster brake, I did eliminate the whole idea of spoke rims though knowing I would need good disk brakes when i was ready to change over motors to the Phantom motor, I just used the rear coaster whilst still using the Zeda 80 motor until I could change out the spoke rims for mag rims which I new at the time wouldn't happen until a few months passed by so I could save up for them...I took it real easy until then knowing that any of these big box stores bike tires, tubes and rims are pure Chinese junk...lol.
The added bonus was the mags came with disk brakes setup as well as the 36 tooth sprocket.

I wouldn't trust the factory rims to hold up to a phantom

How do you measure your bike to order the right mag rims and where did you order them from

I have seen a few 24" mags, but the most common size is 26" so I would go with a bike with 26" wheels

Can you tell me what mags you ordered and tubes and tires and where you got them from?
It's all right there in my "Tutorial" I wrote on my bike.
