rhenry01 , that is a beautiful green , I love it.
Thanks Bruce , I forgot to mention the bottom bracket was pretty hosed so I bought a couple tools and replaced it with a Shimano BB UN55 sealed unit , a 68x123 size was perfect.
I'm going to slightly cut away the kickstand plate to allow clearance for taller tires.
The Giant SX4 700x40 fit pretty good.
I have a set of Schwalbe Marathon Plus Tour in 700x40 which are taller and need a bit more room.
I run over lots of glass and metal debris where I ride , the plus tires are about bullet proof , though slower.
Keep the pics coming , it's a great thread going here.
I had to dump photobucket for picture posting , postimage seems to work pretty good.
