• Bought a Stratton folding bike for £50 after seeing a friends one (The blue bike, yet to collect it) and I'm looking to turn it into something rapid that I can shred the streets with. Below I have provided rough guidelines but I'm open minded to alternate suggestions :)
    I'm looking for:

    Cranks : Ideally a nice vintage crank something like a sugino super mighty but cheaper, and a bottom bracket would be ideal (est budget £30)

    Bars & Stem: A quill stem and a nice riser bar, saw a 520mm nitto one sell here that looked pretty cool (est budget £20)

    Pedals & Straps: Dmr v6 and straps, most likely gonna get these new but if you got something that's great(est budget £10)

    And yeah I think that's about it, reckon I'll weld the freewheel fixed instead of lacing a new hub for now, 20" bmx tyres, cushiony wheelie bmx seat etc etc
