My youngest crashed her bike and smashed.the front wheel a couple weeks ago. I didn't have a spare 20" front wheel laying around (I have a whole tub of spare bike parts), but I had a whole 26" bike laying around. So, I combined the 2 into one bike. She loves it and calls it her clown bike. I had to order a big die to cut more threads on the fork because the 26" fork tube is longer, and the headset bearing nut couldn't get tightened down. But now that it's together, I think it's kinda cool. Now we just need to get it painted.

Clowns are sad.


Get the US out of the UN and the UN out of the US.

She's testing the brake.
Need grips to pass safety inspection.

If you weld, I have a junkyard design
from the old days.

One of the boys stole the grips. I'll pick up new ones from Walmart this weekend.
