    Klunker for FGFS?

    Do you live in the midwest or something? Fixed gear freestyle is dead. Craigslist is full of kids selling these bikes, because the fad is over. Want a bike to do tricks on? Get a bmx. Want a bigger bike to do tricks on? Get a DJ mtb.

    NEW KLUNKER IN TOWN

    I want to say Tony and Vaughn were like 12:10, 12:25? Both those guys have won previous races. So pretty close for such a long track. It is half logging road, half single track. This is my strava time.... which is not too accurate, I turned my phone on 30 secs before official start time...

    NEW KLUNKER IN TOWN

    Check out the NS Bikes Fundamental, super nice forks, normally $130, but they came out with a newer model, so now they are on sale around $50. It doesn't have any brake mounts, either. :D http://www.bikeparts.com/search_results ... Qgod8RAATg Redline Monocog forks show up used pretty frequently.

    One of the most disgusting seats ever made. I'm pretty sure this guy designed the seat. http://www.tomac.com/hero-worship.php Amazing racer, but always had strange bike set ups. Google image "tomac tioga"

    NEW KLUNKER IN TOWN

    1 1/8" will not work easily (without welding cups onto the headtube). They look pretty good. But, I think they have too much back sweep. They seem more cafe racer to me. It also doesn't say how wide they are. 30"+ I would get moto bars. Most guys take the steel ones off as soon as they...

    It would be pretty rad to have a nod to "On Any Sunday", similar era, and kicked off many a kid's love of bmx and moto. Borrow some styling cues from cool bikes of that time. Malcolm's bike Steve's bike Decoster

    Flat Black Heavy Duti + Chrome MTXs with those michelins + + + + chrome profiles + + = MEAN I've got the seat and sprocket, and one Michi 2.8"... redneck would be insanely hard to find and expensive. Prolly go with something visually similar off a junker bmx. The forks and bars are the...

    NEW KLUNKER IN TOWN

    The humu is one of the better choices for a bike that has cruiser lines, but uses good tubing and takes modern parts. They come in different sizes, too, 16", 18", & 20" I believe, though they are probably different throughout the years. There are a good amount of them out there... nowhere near...

    NEW KLUNKER IN TOWN

    They have been making Humu's since the early '90's, and there have been several incarnations: aluminum and cro-mo, horizontal drops/sliding drops, canti bosses vs coaster, and so on. It really depends what year you are talking about. In general, they look alot like a heavy-duti, but are about...

    It's a Kona Humuhumunukunukuapua’a. I'm not sure what year.. some came with canti bosses, others coaster. 4130 butted tubing, 1 1/8" ht, 27.2mm post. He rawed it out. Here's a few pics from when he had Gay Bars on it. Borderline too nice for a klunk: challenger stem, profile cranks and...

    NEW KLUNKER IN TOWN

    The first run of 200 sold out, before the container shipping them had docked. As far as I know, the price is still $550. It has a different sprocket, as well. Pretty sure the stem is nicer, too. They changed the spacing on the welded brake mount, as well. I looked on google, and saw a New...

    http://vimeo.com/31413848 Yeah, he bought the fork off ebay for a pretty penny. One bummer about Tony being a FULL FACTORY klunker rider is he always had the coolest old bikes. But you do feel bad about ruining parts not meant for what you are doing to them. And the threaded headsets, quill...

    Morgan in B.C.'s klunk. 2 of Tony's klunks. Tony has 2 worksman, 2 schwinn heavy dutys, and a chromed out medium duty with mongoose 26" bmx forks. Lars and he worked on the new bike. It has the same geometry as a worksman, but full 4130 tubing, no dents in the stays, good tire clearance...
