Picked this up for a friend last night. Nice condition,a little rust on the pedals & headset,but all in all pretty nice. Just needs a little cleaning up. Figured $75 wasn't too bad.

Thanks! I think I found what I need here... http://problemsolversbike.com/products/ ... _reducers/

I could swear I've seen these somewhere,maybe even here. I searched, but didn't come up with much. I'm looking to install a 1" fork assembly on a bike that has uses 1 1/8" headtube bearings. Is there a shim kit or a headset that will allow this? Thanks in advance guys-Mike

I found out about this too late on the 22nd. I didn't even know there was a bike swapmeet there. I used to go out to Veteran's every month for the High Performance swapmeet. I'll roll out next time. When is the next bike meet?

Dangit. I have to work every other Sat. Was hoping I'd be off. Maybe next time...

Any updates on this build? I just picked up a very nice used one off CL & am planning a few changes.

Here are a few more pics of it...

I didn't even see that! Wierd. Just spoke to the owner. Said he purchased it from an engineer that designed it. I wish I had some extra dough lying around. So cool!

Thanks for all the info! I am planning to make up a laid-back seat post. I am geting the one for my Del Sol machined right now. I think I will put a different set of bars on it. They are a bit long & 1" in diameter. I wanted to swap out the grips as well, but couldn't find any cool 1" ones. I'll...

Yeah, I've seem them there for $140 or so. Figured $60 wasn't too bad. The whole crankset? What exactly takes a doo-doo? Thanks BTW for the info.

I picked this up pretty cheap off CL yesterday. It seems to fit me pretty well. I'm still in the process of picking up a prewar men's framed Colson. Just gotta wait for my income tax return to get here. That's what I get for waiting 'til the last minute to file :roll: .

Picked this up yesterday locally for $60. According to a label under that frame, its only 4 months old. Planning to rip off the decals, swap out pedals, grips,chain and seat for a different look. I finally found a bike that fits me :mrgreen:

Picked this up yesterday for my little 10 month old nephew. It'll be a while before he's able to ride it, but I figured it was too cool to pass up. It's in great shape,with just a few very minor scatches. I need to adjust the bearings & fix the non-op headlight. Got it for $65. Figured it was a...

Just came across this while skimming CL. Is this a female version of the X-53? Just wondering... http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/bik/2976999195.html

Thanks for the kind words guys. I still have alot to do. Not sure I''m keeping the generator light set-up or going with something else. I do plan on running the wires inside the frame where possible. Then I'll cut off the 3-spd cable guides. Peaked fenders are in, and I'm also painting up the...

Diggin' the braided line & AN fittings. I'm looking to buy or bend up a laid back seat post like yours. Is that something you picked up or made? Post diameter? Thanks-Mike

Worked on the bike a bit today since it was slow. Put the original springer back on until I get the Monark repop reinforced. Mocked up a 40's(I think) Roadmaster chainguard that seemed to fit this bike quite well. Just attached with zip-ties for now until I have time to fab up some brackets. I'm...

Not sure if this is the right spot to post this, but thought I'd share the bike Nirve built especially for the Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly show this past weekend. Asking price $397, which I thought wasn't too bad...

Not a bike, but I think I got a pretty sweet deal. I was in Vegas this past weekend for the ViVa Las Vegas Rockabilly show & decided to check out the local Craigslist. Found & picked up a Park Tools bike stand for $25! Super nice shape very sturdy. This thing makes working on bikes a breeze!
