OK, so perhaps I've become untethered, but I have it in my craw to start a new project, namely. building a Stingray OR (and preferably) a Raleigh Fireball. When I was a kid I had a Raleigh Fireball which my parents donated to our church fair WITHOUT my permission, and so my preference for a Fireball project. I love the look of the Stingray however, and it looks as though parts for the Stingray are infinitely more accessible than the Fireball, so with that in mind, it may behoove me to begin with the Stingray. I fully plan on riding it by the way. I am a 47 year old, 6' 2" male and would like to try and build one which will accommodate me. Am I dreaming here or is it feasible? Anyway, thought I'd intro myself anyway. Thanks for reading! BTW, if anyone knows where I can find a Fireball frame, by all means let me know!

Cub, welcome to the forums.
As far as something that may fit your stature, I 24" musclebike really is a pretty comfartable bike. The 20" Huffy rails have the longer frames and would probably be more accomidating as well. Kenny. |
