The step-thru frame, for some reason, is sort of the redheaded step child of the vintage bike world. 'Boys' framed bikes are considered much more desireable and generally command much higher prices on the vintage collectors scene. But step-thru bikes are also super cool and really deserve some love. Originally designed to accommodate the long robes that priests and monks prefer they also worked great for the long skirts that women preferred to wear in the early days of cycling. Now they're considered the 'matching pair' bike, or the 'girfriend' bike. But I and many others think they are very cool in their own right. Given that and in light of the upcoming Step-Thru build off it seems like it would be cool to gather a bunch of pics of cool step-thrus in one thread for ideas and inspiration. And in some cases just some good old fashioned eye candy. So post any and all pics of cool step-thru styled bikes here. All styles, kustom, klunker, kruiser or just daily rider.
Here's some really cool ones built by RRB members.
