Hello all. I just got a mountian bike and will be buying he conversion hopefully next month. What I would like to see is photos of some conversions that might have been set up with baskets or panniers. I am sure somebody else must plan on taking something with them in their travels.

I'm hoping this will work for me. I'm ordering a Mongoose Maxium 26". Next month I'll order a kit. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001IANS4Q/ref=ox_ya_oh_product#moreAboutThisProduct

While the Free rider may be a better overall value. It does require a $1000 up front. give or take a little bit. If I get the cheap bike that cost me under $150 +$400 for the kit I got a bike I can ride to start with for just $550-600. And I could do up grades as I wish or Not. I might decide...

Yes bikes have come a long way from when I was growing up and got my first bicycle at the age of about 10 or 11.

I'm curious wether using 2 different sized tire/wheels on a conversion would be a good thing or a bad thing. It would allow the back to be higher than the from or reversed it would allow a bigger drive tire. Does anyb ody have any thoughts on it.
