Maybe we should have a sticky that, has when we finished our bikes and what sort of riding we do. some sort of description of how the bike was converted, so newbies have some sort of gauge to measure the longevity of these conversions.

Just a thought, might ease the worry of how long it may last. :wink:

You also have to consider some people don't have the room to tear a bike down and do it themselves. God know's I don't have the room. Is why I had someone else do mine. :)

That is also a good point, I get less and less room everyday to work with.

The wife has taken over the house and now she is squeezing me out of the garage, by the end of the year I should be on the sidewalk. :?

You must resist her from taking over the garage. If she get's the house you have to at least get the whole garage. :P
