    Craigslist FREE section....you're gonna hate me.

    Still trying to nail down what year it is. 1920's or 30's Elgin Oriole. Missing some stuff, but I scored HUGE. The forks were bent to fit "new tires" , but I think I can fix them. Wood and steel rims. Weird heart sprocket. :P

    CAUTION- PLEASE READ

    When the "Bikes with motors" section was first built, there were only a few people building these MOTORCYCLES. Only two of us were using the 4-stroke Briggs style engines on here, and Cobrafreak once he figured out the little Chinese engines were junk. When the pedals don't propel the...

    ATTN Texans (Houston?)! Check this out! Help a youngster!

    http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/show ... p?t=766196 As a warning, The HAMB is dedicated to Traditional Hot Rods. The term "rat rod" in this scene is a curse word, and the cars in that category are not looked upon very well. So if you choose to join the forum, be aware of this. If you have...

    Touring Bike build off

    I'd love to see some touring bike builds. I have a nice old Higgins that I would love to build into a touring rat. I'm thinking no frame cutting. Using existing cycle/trike frames. Welding allowed for things like racks or cargo carrying devices.

    Dragster Build.

    I have had a picture in my mind for a while now and when the Dragster Build-off popped up I thought why not. I'm attempting at finishing up a bunch of little project bikes and this will get the drag bike out of the way. I also have a boardtrack build in the bikes with motors section. This...

    I can't seem to find the date for the 2011 build off.

    Are there any home-built Penny Farthings here?

    I have been thinking about one for a long time. I finally have the means to build one. Have any of you built one?

    I scored a new ride...what is it?

    I know it's a Cleavland Welding fork. Looks like either a Roadmaster or Western Flyer. I'm pretty sure the wheels and fenders are not original. Under $100!

    Want to see what you LBS can order from J& B?

    Here you go. Price will depend on your dealer, but at least you have an online catalog to look at. http://www.jbimporters.com/web/index.php Have fun! :D Cheers!

    The Board Track Racer, Briggs powered---Video

    ...but with a motor too. I have not been here for a while. The motored bike forum is pretty lame and there isn't a lot of handbuilt stuff there. I like this group a bit better. I hope you don't mind. I'll share my build so far. I hate the Chinese kits with a passion. So I found an tiny...

    50's Hiawatha- afternoon sex change

    I had this old Hiawatha women's bike that I robbed the fork off of for my other project. But I just couldn't see it go to waste. This morning I went to the shop and decided to do a "quick" build. Well, One thing lead to another, and there was a cheap Huffy 3 speed sitting next to it. I just...

    What can I use this for...

    I love living in a wasteful society. For almost $2 I get a energy drink, and a sturdy little aluminum bottle. There HAS to be a good use for these! :wink:

    '58 Schwinn Tornado. ~Bored Rat~

    I have had this bike hanging for a few years now. The seat tube is broke clean off right above the bottom bracket, but I couldn't see it go. After a friend told me about his build, and after I discovered this site, I decided it was time for me to build a new board track racer style rat. It will...

    New member intro. Yay.

    Hey all. I have been in to bikes for some time now. I run a community used bike shop here in Southern MN. If you need a part, I probably have it. I have owned hundreds of bikes, and my collection constantly changes. I was just turned on to this site and I'm stoked! A lot of really cool...
