New project to not finish!

Found this little guy and made an unplanned purchase. $300 on craigslist! Came with lights and blinkers and a light-up skull too!

It isn't ready to ride. Gonna swap on some disc brakes and good wheels.

Mad Dog 20/20 has almost the same effect, I've been told...

Our's was flavor-aid, 25lbs of sugar, and a few bags of ice, then pour random bottles of booze in it till full. 55 gallon garbage can is a must.

Well since everybody throwing drinks out there! Anyone make shaky jug drinks? I'm sure they got a proper name. Take what ever fruit you want & cut in slices, then put it in a 1 gallon glass jar ,then add what liquor you prefer & lots of ice. Install lid & shake, preferably with your drinking buddies, cause it takes a bunch of shaking to work properly. After lots of shaking the fruit & ice will pulverize itself into a frozen treat from heaven!!! Caution Drink Moderately!!! Or you'll look like these 2 guys. Btw nice snag on the bike!!

You need a paint shaker.

Here is the swapped front wheel with a BikeBerry disc brake adapter. It slides over the axle and locks with a key that fits in the dropout. I think I'm gonna tap into it where that hole is and add a screw.

I'll add more when the calipers are on. I ordered two sets of these back in October. They arrived a couple weeks ago (backordered). Just now getting a chance to use them.

Absolutely do that as a few have had it slip out of place...i think its the best thing to do with this adapter...DAMIEN

Ps...Hopefully these brakes will stop...lol...I already tried your last brakes...lol.

I would do that as you planned also, that is a good idea I believe with that style adapter, it will help keep from spreading your dropout under a hard braking situation.

Is that a walmart frame? Or a Cruz frame as BBR refers to them? It almost looks like a hyper frame.

Screw tapping into it. I'll just put a hole with a nut, bolt, and some glue

No can't do that. Only about a mm between the adapter and the rotor.

Back to tapping like Happy.

I think it is a cranbrook frame. There are no badges on it and it has nice spray can paint job on it. At least better than anything I can do with paint.

I found a scratch. It looks like it was cranbrook teal before.
