    95 Schwinn Heavy Duti Strandie build.

    You turned it into a sweet ride! I'm curious about the coaster conversion too. How do you do that? (And can you ride fakie without pedaling?)

    What do you have in the works?

    In the past few weeks I crossed this $15 frame with this freebie and added a bunch of other leftover bits. This is what it turned into I've now ridden it at the MTB trails, the BMX track, and the skate park and only have $20 in it. It has been a blast!

    Project "Firebolt" life after BO

    Your work on that thing is awesome - missing a deadline is nothing compared with how it's coming together.

    Need help finding some handlebars

    I always find tempting bars there. My last (and only) buildoff bike was close to getting these: And I already want these for my next buildoff bike (if they get more in stock). Good luck in your quest!

    *MBBO/ORBO* - So, who's in and for what category??

    I've been wanting to build a Huffy Nel Lusso that'll haul a few groceries and/or implements of destruction for mountain bike trail maintenance. Sounds like a good excuse to join in on the ORBO fun! Isn't she a beauty?

    My daughters first build

    She has much better fashion sense than most of us who wrench on bikes! (It's seriously cool that she's learning how to make things work at that age - good job!)

    Raleigh and Schwinn Framesets and parts

    Over the weekend I went to a backyard bike mechanic shop looking for some klunker parts and came home with a few extra frames. Frameset 1 - Raleigh Sports 24" $45 plus shipping. There is a small dent in the top tube just in front of the seat post, otherwise, it seems very straight. That...

    Needing advice for saddle covering

    Thanks, guys! ABS plastic sounds easier and leather sounds cooler from a build standpoint. Would it be feasible to do an ABS base with padding and a leather cover?

    Mismatched Wheel or Tire Sizes

    26x2.125 front and 24x2.3 back - trying for the motocross look. I'm very happy with the setup, but the 2.3 barely fits in the Worksman chainstays. I am adding adjusters this weekend to help fine-tune the alignment.

    Bike from the Dead's Freshly-Exhumed Finds (Everything I've dug up since 6/15/21)

    Love that caution sticker. This morning I was thinking about challenging my riding buddies to do a klunker build and ride. The caution sticker fit right in!

    Needing advice for saddle covering

    I found this saddle frame in a bucket of old road bike parts. Does anyone have advice on where to buy a cover or on recovering it myself?
