Re: ►► OFFICIAL 2011 AUCTION BIKE IS ON THE BLOCK ◄◄ You know, the bike I got that Udallcustombikes put together and I PAID $1.00 FOR IT ( I won it in a raffle at the MW Bikefest a couple of months ago), is one great ride. Because I only PAID $1.00 that gives me some xtra $$ to throw at the...

I have used cardboard to make a few parade and theme bikes. We use LOTS of contact glue to layer cardboard and make shapes, and use LOTS of zip ties to attach the cardbord to the frames. On some Ive used wood and U-bolts to attach the cardboard or very thin plywood to the bike. Ive used...

Here are my bare metal bikes, that I built several years ago, out of aluminum honeycomb composite, there is no tube frame in these bikes. They have never been painted, although they have had stuff glued to them, but acetone and a jitterbug (orbital sander) cleans them up. the Alumasled the...

Well here it is. Its a little ruff and missing some stuff. But its a great start for a rat bike, you know Im not much for restoring things to original. Its missing the rear steering linkage and the rear steer sprocket has been spot welded so it does not turn, but I think a little work with the...

Guess what I found in Garnett on the way home from Lawerence today.. a Colson sftr tandem. We like to take the long way home and stop at antique shops. But we were in the car, so Sunday we are making a bonzi run to pick it up in the van. Its not as nice as Ratfink1962s, but for the $$ its a good...

I got a couple of recent (year 2000 something) Louisaiana license plates and I could part with one, if you send me a Floriada plate. PM me with your info.

Re: Toys for Tots Bicycle Ride - Wichita Looks like its going to be a great day for a bike ride. weather forecast is for 65 degrees and mild winds. We should be there. Earlier that day is the Toys for Tots motorcycle run, Ill probably go watch them take off ( some 3500 motorcycles ) then go...

Re: My 1st Schwinn Straightbar **UPDATE w/ New Pics** Nice rat bike. You have THE WORLD by the ba...rs.

Like MagicRat said. I like to see tall bikes ridden, but its to far for me to fall. I likem low to the ground, not so far to fall.

Love those 2 speed kickbacks. My first was on my Sting Ray back in the mid 1960s, It was the fastest bike in the neighborhood because of the holeshot of the low gear. When I got to playing with bikes again about seven years ago, I started picking 2 speed KBs (most were found on Schwinn Breeze...

Got mine TODAY. It even has a bike on the cover that a Coaster BC rider built, Corey with Road Candy. Oh yea, and there is a pic of RatRod as a kid, with lots of hair. Enjoy.

Hey Popcorn, I use solid rod and bend it cold. Its easy (you need a long cheater pipe and something very strong to hold the rod, I use a hole in the concrete in my back yard) and cheap (about $15 can make 2 or 3 bent seat posts). You might have to change your seat clamp and maybe shim the seat...

Here are a couple of mine. the Fat rat, my RRBBO6 bike, the batteries are inside and the headlights (eyes and mouth of the raccoon) work the Beer Bike

I like the seats low on my bikes. Being 6'1" tall the seat would be up high on the bike, so to keep the seat lower I set myself back to get more leg room. So I bend seat posts for them, even Crazy Mae at 5'4" wants her bikes to have the seat set low and back. Heres pics of the bikes I took to...

Re: 7th Annual Midwest Bicycle Fest WOW! Another great MW Bike Fest, Thank You, Randy and family, Mitch, Cameron, the Sponsors, and everyone else who worked to make this such a great event. Big Thanks to everybody that brought out all those cool bikes. Pick and his RRBBO6 bike the Bad Apple...

Hey Cameron, will you be able to get the NASCAR race on there Sunday at the MW bike fest? You know those guys put down some long skidmarks, too.

That bike is bluetiful......and I bet its fun to ride.

Re: 7th Annual Midwest Bicycle Fest I was asked to build a trophy. A trophy for what I like as the best kustom bike. The trophy is for "Dangerous Dan,s Choice - Kustom". Im a bit of an artist, I build my art using automobile parts and other cool stuff, and I am a fan of Von Dutchs flying...

Mine is an old one of unknown origin, the leather embossing of the manufacturer is unreadable. My suggestion is move the clamp back as far as possible in the seat frame and use a grade 8 bolt. heres mine on the Beerbike

I got a few of them, never paid that much for them. I bought a couple of them on the bikes and only paid $20 or $ 25 for the bikes ( both bikes were unrideable). heres pics of 2 of the star sprockets and how I used them. the Starliner, my RRBBO4 bike the Star Chief, A bike I was building...
