Mini Krate Schwinn Lemon Peeler 16" rear wheel 12" front: I built this up 10 years ago or so.  It was a 16" wheel Stingray frame that I modified to replicate a Krate.  Parts used include: front and rear Atom drum brakes, Schwinn 5 speed Stik Shift, original Krate seat shocks added to the mini sissy bar, Schwinn approved rear derailleur, NOS Gripper slick, 20" spring fork.  I tried to use parts that were as similar as possible to the original Krate series of bikes.  We've changed our focus to collecting mountain bikes so this one is now for sale.  It isn't cheap but if you add up the parts used and the effort to make it work, I don't think you could duplicate it any cheaper.  It is basically functional but it has never been ridden.  If you intend to ride it, plan on putting in a little effort to tune it up.  $895
