I'm pretty sure those cranks don't suit the cruiser.

Take them off and I'll do you a favour by disposing of them

here's a few day time shots.
i really cant decide weather to stick to black tyres or
go with the reds?? ? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?

Jt · « **Reply #13 on:** January 26, 2008, 02:09 PM »

defiantely stick with the black tyres mate..they make the bike,more so than the red uns ( my opinion!)

Mattdub · « **Reply #14 on:** January 26, 2008, 03:06 PM »

Deffo black tyres & sling the front brake , it'd look more like a race bike then

MartyC · « **Reply #15 on:** January 26, 2008, 04:43 PM »

Black tyres on the cruiser

Both look stunning

Black tyres look so much better - to much red with the red ones.

Looks better without the brake guard - try alans for a red mirage one - he has some stashed away mind you there expensive but i love them - would look loads better in my opinion- heres mine for reference.
