    What have you been riding lately?

    It looks like it came with the bike from the factory. Well done!

    I'm digging the weathered headbadge!

    Do they make a dropper post for that thing?

    Cockpit shots only

    Will reverse cockpit work? I snapped this one on a trail ride this morning. (The trusty old Huffy Santa Fe II)

    24 inch Free Spirit BMX Cruiser (PAUSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE)

    It's turning into a cool machine - may your fortunes reverse quickly so you can get back to it (and have some peace of mind)!

    Motorcycle-style headlight, anyone?

    This one was 9.99 on Amazon. Just run a 48v line into one pair and get 12v out of the other. It may even fit in the headlight bucket.

    Any (west) Texas old bike swap meets or klunker rides coming up this spring? (2023)

    Title says almost everything. I'd like to find a few old-bike reasons to get out of Lubbock in the next few months. Preferably west of I-35. Kansas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico would be fine too. Thanks!

    I saw that @axemann88 mentioned 1977mopeds.com. Another great moped parts source is treatland.tv in California. They always have some cool headlight assemblies and many of the speedos that go with them. While you're there, check out forks, handlebars, and 16" tires (that fit on wide 20"...
