What is the craziest combo of parts you have put together?

[Buck Masterson]

I was just curious as to what is the craziest combination of parts you have put together to make a working bike? I have a couple frames, and some parts that would make them workable bikes, but they pretty much do not go together to much. Like for instance, I have a 70's? 26" Ross Ladies bike, and some BMX wheels and some other odds and ends laying around. I was thinking of putting them together just for S***s and giggles, just out of boredom. If nothing else it is something I can strap to the top of the Old Malibu Wagon to take camping with me. Yeah, can you tell it is winter in Illinois, and I am REAL bored? :roll:

That might make for a fun build off. Whackiest or ugliest bike.

 

[Buck Masterson]

LOL good idea! Who has an ugly bike to show me for insperation?

 

[Rat Rod]

This one has to be in the running...ha ha.

 

[Rat Rod]

Buck, I don't know about S***s, but Giggles would probably like to see it! :mrgreen:

Here's a few pics off a bike I built for CBN's Rat Bike Build Off, it took third place. I call her Ratasia.
A Huffy mt. bike, a Schwinn Predator BMX and a Health rider exerciser all gave their life for Ratasia!

Crappy welding was perfected for just the right look. Blackpipe is our friend

Golfclub kickstand!

Front end consists of Healthrider parts (fork legs and handlebars), several cut up suspension forks, porch swing braces, and high/low beam flashlights. The high beam is the top one and the low beam is .... well ... you can figure it out!

Sissybar is made from two Stihl trimmer shafts. The seat is covered in a pair of my old underwear. Classy, I know!

And, the ultimate question ..... is it rideable?!
H*ll Yeah!

Even for Giggles!

I was looking for a picture of a bike that we put together at the camp I worked at. The thing had a 20" rear wheel, 12" front wheel on 20" forks, mini- apes with deer antlers tied to them, a banana seat with an old suspension fork cut off and used in lieu of a sissy bar. It was a blast to ride. No paint job, it was all pink and red and blue. Good times.
