    Old Mohawk badged kids bike

    Picked this bike up at a local junk store/thrift shop for $21.76 (20 plus tax). Figured it would make cool wall art if it turns out to be worthless. Looking for any info on this bike. Thanks in advance. Bryan

    (MBBO Class 1) - Operation Black -'76 Raleigh

    Finally getting around to start my thread for the build off. This bike is(at least what I was told) a 1976 Raliegh mx. Picked this bike up for $30 bucks. I thought it was such a cool, funky looking frame, that I had to have it. This bike is going to be for my 7 year old son when it's all done...

    '64 American

    I scored this rider Saturday morning at a garage sale. It's a Schwinn American built 2/14/1964. I put some air in the tires and took her for a ride. Rides real good! Bike is a bit rusty, but otherwise in great shape. It has a wald rack up front, and I'm guessing the apes were added later on in life.

    -The Schwinn Cedar - '41 DX - DONE! - More Pics 8/2

    What I have here is a early 40's Schwinn DX, '41 I have been told. I am going to be using some old cedar to carve out a tank for the bike, and most likely some blocks for the pedals, and possibly some cedar for the saddle. This will be my first build off and have been looking forward to it for...

    My finds today at the Tacoma Bike Swap

    I walked by this flap several times picking it up and finally decided that I had to have it. Might wind up on my BO9 bike, we will see. Got this little set up for $30 bucks!!! Little rusty, but they will clean up just fine. I already have a set for my BO9, but it never hurts to have a extra...

    The big blue whale

    Well, 'The big blue whale' is what is written on the chainguard..... but it looks more like a 1950 Schwinn. Long story short, I'm a garbage man and I have been eyeing this bike leaning up against a tree for several years now, every friday when I pick up the trash on the street. I was bound and...
