Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler. Albert Einstein I think it is just too simple. It looks too simple because of the lack of hub and spokes which makes it just look weird. But building it became way more complicated and in the end doesn't really contribute to the good...

Whoa I think that gold bike is my favorite bike I have ever seen. It reminds me of a 60's Kustom car.

that thing is sweet!

I heard aluminum foil works too. I was told to rub a ball of foil on my chrome and it would shine it up. It kinda worked. Maybe you might have better results.

well since no one has posted some pics I may just have to build one and post some.

hydraulic would rule. I think there would be a eye pleasing solution might require a custom rotor. Or do a classy cover to make it look old school. I would rock em on my stingray if I wasn't so lazy and poor.

Any of you guys ever build a tank for your stingray? I have been thinking about building a custom one for one of my Black Friday stingrays like those that came on the vintage full size schwinns.

The POR-15 will fade unless it is top coated. Same with the bedliner just check out a truck with and old spray in bedliner. I guess it could allways be resprayed.

I would be pissed if I went to visit a friend and left my bike there and went on vacation or something and came back and my bike was gone! There was a similar situation here in Utah. A girl rode her bike to a hiking trail head. She was missing and on the news there was descriptions of the bike...

those things were that expensive! back then you could buy a niced used dirt bike for that! my dad payed 150 for a GTO with a blown headgasket about the same time!

Anyone know who makes a frame like that? I would love a vintage stylish frame with the modern lightweight aluminum!

Re: BARN STORMIN' dirt tracker[ y'all keep yer boards] that is cool man. I wish there were some tires like these to build a bike around.

i hate to sound like a ..... but in my experience most bike shop owners are total jerks. especially fancy trek shops. If you aren't buying some carbon this kevlar titanium that yuppie bike that costs more than any car i have owned, they treat you like something that stuck to their shoe.

I think that means it's steel. I think they determine unknown metals by grinding on it and using a reference to the color of the sparks. if you want to get all technical. but it is most likely steel unless they were experimenting with some exotic metal like beryllium

thats good right?
