Hehehe, I did one of those. big frame with skyways. It lasted about a day. I got sick of the pedals
grinding, and I didn't own a set of shorter cranks at the time. It was fun, and got looks, hehe. Here's a
mockup for my latest. It already has tires, and the rack is bolted on. The rack was actually issued to
kids with a paper route, back when it was safe for kids to have a paper route. Times have changed

This is a replica of the bike my older brother used back in the late sixties and early seventies., It had a big
set of canvas saddlebags that went over the rack for the papers. I just need fenders, and blast and paint the rack now. Maybe another touch here and there.,,,,BD
