Thanks for the comments. The new integrated racks are pretty cool, they actually expand. Where the color break is, you can pull on the rack and extend it 8-10". I don't have an exact measurement of the extension because we haven't seen a production sample yet. The name Nel Lusso is Italian for...

I just recently finished this bike up for Kmart Australia. I had a lot of fun working on this bike, and I think it has quite a bit of style for a girls 20" bike. I give you the Surf Betty.

Oh and my dog is not included with the men's Deluxe model. The next sneek peek I'll give is of a pair of bike for the infamous Walmart. They were based on the Deluxes (as you can see) and should be in about 450 stores around the country this coming spring. I'm not sure if they will be...

The first thing I'll do is repost the Deluxe cruisers that I designed for our 2010 adult line. I can say that these bikes have been received very well by retailers and should show up in stores spring 2010. As I find out more specifics I'll let you know which retailers will actually be carrying them.

I figured I would put together a topic where I will post pictures of bikes and other sneek peeks straight from the Huffy Design Center. So please feel free to ask questions and I will do my best to answer them. I hope you enjoy. Please check out my other topics as well. My Intro...

That thing is looking awesome. I love that chainguard you put on it, and really like the idea of some rusty fenders. The brown saddle and grips (when you get them on there) are a nice touch too. I can probably hook you up with a new set of the graphics that came on the bike. So you could trim...

Keep on buying them... job security. I'm always excited to see projects that start with one of my bikes. I really like the first one, with the triple trees. I am planning a build that uses a set as well. Keep up the good work. -HuffyDesigner

iride, yes I did the colors and graphics for this family of bikes. Thank you for the compliment, we don't often get to here customer reactions to our designs so its nice to hear you like it. However, its just as cool to see my bikes turn into something else. Can't wait to see it painted.

And another one of mine bites the dust... Keep up the good work.

XXXBMX it varies a lot between models. I'd say 90% of the time the product manager will take an existing frame drawing and make alterations to it. It is then emailed to one of our factories to make the samples, which are shipped to our office in Dayton. Sometimes we may go through a round or two...

Well I guess I will tell a little more about myself. I am 27 years old and am a Miami University (Oxford, OH) alum. I graduated with a Bachelors Degree in Graphic Design. I have always been a big car guy, drawing a lot of inspiration from there for my design work. After school I bar tended for...

Thank you for the comments. The Deluxe's turned out really well, I'll try to remember to grab a picture of the womens and post it as well. emanon, yes I did do the Newport's (they were the first cruisers I got to do). I based the colors for them off of a beautiful 57 Chevy that I saw at a car...

Hey guys, been awhile since I posted. I've been swamped at work with our newest adult line. These bikes will be shown to retailers and would be available in 2010. I thought I would post one of my latest creations. Behold the Deluxe (modeling next to it is my dog Guinness) I had to work all...

Just got back from a spin around the block, I think the gearing is perfect (14t rear and 28t front). I love being able to take a little break from work and tool around on this thing. -HuffyDesigner

Well I decided to create a gallery of my bikes. I am sorry but some of them are not rats, but I thought you all might like to see them anyway. I'm starting out with the bikes I have at work. • Covert Cruiser • • The Supercharger • • heck's Belle• just finished her up, can't wait to get...
