The pedal arm its self is hitting the reaf fork, If I remember correctly, the pedal arm is one solid piece, if that matters.

I think the frame might be a walmart special, so Im kind of looking for a cheap haro frame, but seeing how its winter Im in no rush. I $23 for the bike, and got it in pieces and had to put it together.

Not bad looking at all man :thumbup: I like the personal touch you gave it.

As a side note, I worked at a bike pro-shop in the late 80's before I got into cars. I still miss that place. We were on of the first dealers on the east coast to carry the brand-new (back then) Fat City Cycles. I remember seeing the first Fat Chance and was in love! Then we got a titanium one...damn!

Sorry for the memory lane threadjack :beatstick:
