    new fenderless stingrays on amazon

    I’m not into muscle bikes, but I think it’s cool that they repop them. if kids are actually riding them, that’s even cooler.

    That looks to me like you are too hot and not cleaning the material good enough

    Cargo Bike

    Im not sure. I live in nj but work in nyc. It seems if you live there you have to be rich to also own a car. And to own a car almost seems like more a nuisance than it’s worth. It seems like living there at all is a statement. But they do use bikes a lot.

    Whitewall, gumwall, blackwall

    Oh all my bikes have turned into this kind of build. I honestly like the higher pressure tires like k rad or holy roller. Most have a wald or Akisu straight fork, and a 4 bolt stem of some sort. I was thinking if I had to buy a set of tires maybe I’d try to be a little more period correct...

    Whitewall, gumwall, blackwall

    I was thinking to put a set of Whitehall kenda k80 on a build, but it just doesn't seem right.

    Whitewall, gumwall, blackwall

    On these 26” bmx or strandie bikes what tire would be appropriate, for a given year, or brand? The cheap stud style tire seems to work well with these builds, but what color, for what style, or year, or whatever would have made them put certain tire on them?

    Cargo Bike

    that cool. I see talk kind of cargo bikes around NYC sometimes I think it would be cool to build one but I have no use where I live. I still think it's funny to see people take like 3 kids to school on a cargo bike.

    Blade fork

    I have bmx tube fork on most of my bikes. I removed the wald fork from this one to use on my varsity trail bike. I had thick bricks on it and didn’t like the way it rode. I put these crusty old Electra white walls that take more Psi. It’s better but it still steers funky.

    Blade fork

    Do all blade forks steer like crap? I have this straight bar schwinn I had built up as klunker, decided to go more of a rat cruiser. Put a typhoon blade fork on it and I feel it wander around turns

    Chemical hand warmer hack

    One of the modern jump starters would probably work for that. They are small and light. But kind inexpensively only using for hand warmers.

    2018 SCHWINN APPLE KRATE - ANNIVERSARY EDITION

    Im not into muscle bikes, but that looks pretty nice. Are they paint or powder coated? I like the wheels and drum but I don’t understand why they don’t put a nexus 3 with a nice SA thumb shifter on these bikes.
