    True value of vintage parts (Just an observation)

    So Im sure it comes as no shock to anyone here that prices for cool old parts has kinda spiraled outta control, but I cant figure out why. Those who are into this hobby know, for the most part, what these parts are worth and are not going to pay $700 for a double clamp redline stem from the 80s...

    RIP EVH

    I cant help but be sad after hearing that such huge part of my youth died yesterday. Working on bikes in my garage with all my friends crankin "women and children first" (got that album for my 16th bday!) living for Wednesday and Friday nights to go race @ the Orange "Y". My life was bikes...

    ‘57 Schwinn Straight Bar

    Sweet build. Question: I found a set of vintage Shimano 600 3 piece cranks. The YST BB kit you have on this bike comes w everything right? 2 bearings, square taper spindle and end bolts? Its for my 62 Schwinn Typhoon straightbar. Thanks!

    79 Schwinn Spitfire brings me back

    IMHO, That bike right there, set the standard for why we are all here. I realize that the "cruiser" has been around a long time...for decades..., but that bike, that year, was the beginning of this culture we are all a part of. Again...just my opinion.:praise:

    photo-yuk-et

    Hi Everybody. So is there a way we can post pics that don't have the big "photo bucket" strip across them? I understand that is primarily used for copyright infringement, but it kinda defeats the purpose of a "show me" type of site such as this one. IMO, so much is lost behind that diffused...

    so I was bored...

    so my 54 Vette 3 speed was just sitting there, minding its own business, being neglected. So I decided to turn it into a "pseudo" board tracker. I did it a while back, but never rode it cuz the front hub was messed up. Well, I fixed it, and now it runs pretty sweet & "smoov". Uncomfortable as...
