I need that for all of my bikes - that'll keep the missus guessing. NO, Really, I NEED that!!!

For some time I wanted to start a thread of bike racks. I am sure there are some good ones, artistic ones, some that that are failing poorly, some that are impromptu that were never meant to be used as racks, and some that are just plain boring but are in an interesting location or have a cool...

Thanx for the input. I will look into that as soon as I return for North Carolina..... Cool. Niice upgrades.........

For some time I wanted to start a thread of bike racks (useful ones too) I've got pics of a couple of interesting ones. I just wanted to start the thread after the Summer BO since there is so much going on. Also, a bike rack could be boring but at a cool location......

I like the juxtapose comparison. The Romet "all-rounder" with the longer wheel base more relaxed frame (space between the rear tire and seat post for tire pump) and the tighter/shorter wheel base Villiger. Bikes for all occasions!!..... Yay......🎉

I don't know which model I have but I felt that it was always kinda cool: maybe because it is just so different than "mainstream" bikes. and it was a dual suspension bike before there was dual suspension mountain bikes. If I send you a pic later today (got to go to physical Therapy this AM) do...

@crazydave58 , this is waaaay cool. I can't believe I've never heard of these before. Perhaps it's only distributed north of the border? I really like my '50s (?) Moulton but I'm putting one of these on my list.......

Trimmed dropouts and for down tube. I'm hope to weld when it cools off: 1AM, 2AM??🥵

I'm still working on the chain stays.... The triangular down tube is being problematic as I am used ti visualizing round tubes (Harbor Freight tool)...... Transferring outline to steer tube while keeping the alignment between the dropouts and the center line of the triangle down tube... It...

And "The 'Fish" for the trifecta....Lumberjacked it is! Now I am searching for some motivation.....I can't even think what the heat is out west......

Interesting. I guess I shouldn't be surprised: Schwinn chain guard, Schwinn hand grips, and Schwinn tires (26 x 2.125).... I would like to find some fender skirts and then perhaps deal with the chain guard....

Wow, thanx for the heads-up....

This past week I bought it and did some research here at RRB and this is what I think/guess. The rest of the info, accessories, color, color accents, etc I have no clue... BB numbers: MOS-N (Murry Ohio Sears - 1949 ?) MOD 502 252...

I'll probably go with "Jacked Up" but internally I'll be thinking "Jackass". That has a broader meaning to include me also......;)

Not to take over your thread, but you know why men are predominately deaf in their right ear? Think about it, when you are driving the car, which side is the wife sitting on???;)
