I saw someone's tag line..."friends don't let friends ride mountain bikes..." I am curious to see what people have done with mountain bike frames... I picked up a '90's Specialized Rockhopper from the Goodwill for $6.00 ...still searching for inspiration.

For Christmas, I bought my wife a new bike. (She didn't want something I "made"...) An Australian Company called Papillionaire makes some pretty cool bikes: link here http://www.papillionaire.com/buy/classic http://www.papillionaire.com/buy/caferacer I liked two models, the classic and...

Imagine that! A restaurant made for the bike.

This is a bike I built for my father-in-law for Christmas... Just now getting around to posting my winter builds. This one started life as a varsity cruiser. I built the wheels with some aluminum hoops, put a twin sprocket crank set up front... Couldn't get the derailleur to work well enough...
