Electra Bicycle Pics

[voodoo curse]

Has anyone tried to peel the graphics off of one of these?
I'm specifically interested in whether the 8-ball would come off the side of the Straight 8...

yup, it's under the paint....... so i just striped right over it like it wasn't there mine is almost 3 years old and the paint was still in good shape (for lugging it on the train) i'll paint it later


go get one. it's a smooth ride, and the 3spd is nice

You better say you carry beers in that cute basket.

what else would it be for?..... 12 cold ones fit in there quite nicely, I might add

besides, that HUGE head tube looks kinda weird........

Here's a couple of shots of our Townies. Both 3 speeds. My wife's Art (moo-moo or Bessie) has a freewheel instead of a coaster brake, which is cool. I'd steal it from her but my frame isn't tapped for rear rim brakes. Replaced stock tires 2.0 tires for 2.125 Kenda Flames, and the stock bars for a really nice cruiser bar from my Black Bike. Mine (Matte Red) has a set of Bontrager Hank slicks and shortened stock bars. Got more in store for it. Thinking about a 8spd Nexus hub, and.....anyway, here they are:

I'm diggin' that matte red paint - and the Redline Bontragers are a great matching touch! Nice!

Here's my Electra that I put together a couple years ago. Changed the light bracket since then becuase it bounced the light around too much while riding...

Where were you able to find a red primer Rockbilly that hadn't yet been sold? If I understand correctly, that was discontinued for ;08 and replaced by the matte sand version, which lasted a year (My LBS still has an '08 in matte sand)?

This was the model that made me want an Electra, but I fell instantly in love with my Boney Finger when I saw it in the shop. However, a friend who has a red Rockabilly like yours las had his in my garage since July, and I'm hoping he would let it go for a decent price. It's a sweet bike, and my wife likes riding it more than her Nirve Hello Kitty (of course!) although she's hesitant to admit it.

The "sand" color doesn't have the triple tree forks either. I too have one of these and love it to death. I ride it all the time.

Dude that's a SWEET Deuce. Hang on to that beauty, they're getting harder to find. My partner at Tour De Fat last weekend rides one like yours, but with some upgrades, and folks took MAD pics of his ride.

Nice. I wish I could find one of these frames. They're nicer than the newer ones to me.
