Hey peeps... need some opinions on my trike build. i've had a trail mate regal sitting around for a while because we weren't happy with the frame design (square tubing and no character at all)... but i recently found out that i could remove the rear end, so now im looking into hookin it up...

hello old friends. long time no see. i just reassembled our 78 stingray and i noticed the front end is super wobbly. i can feel the headset moving back and forth when push/pull on the handle bars. i need to know which part of the headset i need to tighten to fix this. when i put on the crown...

got my new springer in the mail from choppers us yesterday. install was a nuisance as always, since i dont have a repair stand. it seems to fit pretty well... except... i've got a pretty noticeable gap between the upper bearing cup and race. i would say it's about an 1/8th of an inch. the...

has anybody used one of these chinese made springers? i know you get what ya pay for but considering it's half the price of others it might be worth it. sales are final though, so i gotta be sure this will work. give me all the feedback ya got. i was thinking of ordering from choppers us...

My time has come. My lovely fiance and I are tying the knot tonight. Wish me luck!!!! We'll be in Jamaica the rest of the week for the honeymoon. I'll soak up some sun for all you guys. 8) Peace.

picked this up from a local bike "hoarder" off craigslist. the bike and bars all for $10!! this guys backyard was like a hedge maze... an 2' wide path with junk piled head high on both sides. we went to looking for 20" wheels then i saw this. it's got the right size wheels and a sweet banana...

tell me what brands you guys like... the pro's, the con's. i wanna hear everyone's opinion. I've seen that bikeworlsusa has the best price but they look pretty generic. so... im trying to decide on a compromise between brand name and price. i think i've settled on getting some Bontrager...

... a tandem in the back of a PT Cruiser. :mrgreen: this thing barely fit. i had to take off both wheels, the rear fender, and the front handlebars. :| drove 3.5hrs to and from to get this thing... but for $100 it was well worth it. it's kinda rough but it's gonna super fly when we get...

im looking at getting one of the new style chopper bikes to use the fork. the head tube on the chopper bikes are much longer. does anyone know if those forks can be adjusted? or would i have to cut i down to size? thanx.

getting free bikes is really not helping with this new addiction. Penny's mom moved into a new house and look what she found in the attic. woot!! 78 huffy El Dorado in great condition. It was mighty dusty. I cleaned it up a bit. The tires still hold air. The brake is shot though...

Found this at the swap meet this morning... but the guy was asking $125 so i had to pass. I know, I know... you're thinking "how could you pass that up!!" It looks like it had been painted then stripped.

After searching craigslist for a couple of months i finally found my bike. every thing listed before was more than i wanted to pay or got scooped up before i could get it. so then there was a listing for a bunch of bikes for sale with no specifics or pics. i called the guy and made sure he had...

How do i get this Schwinn head badge off? i figured the screws were standard threaded flatheads but i tried unscrewing them and they wont budge. I started thinking they might be pull out tabs, but that's doubtful. i figure better safe than sorry, so I ask the advice of the rat rod gods. :)...

Ok... so here we go. My wife Penny got this one on craigslist for $60 and a haircut. If my calculations are correct it's a 78 stingray. I still havent been able to confirm if it was Chicago made. It's gonna end up as more of a lowrider, 'cause Penny likes to be flashy. :) It's in pretty...
