BMX bars for a Klunker vibe.
Before Electra was bought by Trek they made some really cool bikes and the Straight 8 was one of them.
This one has been significantly modified and has been re-styled numerous times.
It's really been to zany and back!
It has seen duty as the original beach cruiser, a Dragster-style with mega apes, Banana saddle and sissy bar, to a flat bar style, to its current incarnation as a sports cruiser.
Current Mods include:
- Boxkars Shifter
- Extended triple tree forks
- Disc brake front end
- BMX bars and stem
- Brooks Saddle
- Classic Cycle pedals
- Upgraded crank set
- Thick Brick White-walls
- Garmin
- Lighting and numerous Kustom touches
The Brooks sprung saddle is one of the most comfortable available. When coupled with Electra's flat-foot frame technology and its 24x3" wheels, it makes for a bike that throws around nicely, it handles confidently and is a joy to be aboard.
It looks great too, and draws many compliments from passers-by.
