    * I preferred the footplates before being painted Black though, but I suppose it goes with the gold & that amazing airbrushed art 😍 it's a dream build mate!
    Edit - D'oh!!! I forgot you built this beauty a while ago, silly me.. But it's one superb beach cruiser of a build, it really is stunning and you (and those super skilled guys) put a LOT of effort & work into it and it shows, it's top notch!

    Now that is a seriously kool cruiser ebike mate. Although it wouldn't be too practical for me as I live in Yorkshire where the hills are like mountains.
    The bike does have potential to add lots more batteries with all that space in the frame. I would also add some mudguards as you know what our weather is like.
    I love this channel and am so glad I found it.

    I have a Giant Stiletto bike in my back yard that I have wanted to turn into an electric bike for years now. Never had the money or capability to really do work on it though, and since it sat outside for so long it's sadly badly rusted on the frame and front forks. And of course getting replacement parts is next to impossible now since Giant stopped making bikes like that some time ago.
    I've actually had two over the years, but my first one got stolen from my back garden out of a locked shed whilst it was also D-locked up as well - someone was REALLY desperate to get their hands on it apparently! I later found out that the police had actually found it, as the culprit also had a bunch of stolen-to-order bikes in their property, but unfortunately they'd also cut up the frame like yours was at some point - probably to extend it too - so there was no point taking it back in pieces that I couldn't get put back together again. It went to the scrap centre in town.
