Damn, I wants me a bike with a set of Fat Frank balloon tires. In cream, please, just like this Electra Townie.
The bike shop is Truly Spokin', which is right next to the Blackwater Heritage State Trail. Killer location. Their anchor brands are Giant, Bianchi, and Electra.

The Tires are Kenda that I got from Amazon. The Seat is a Schwinn Pillowtop from Amazon. I want to eventually get some NOS Tires that are made in USA as well as a nice old Leather Seat.
