Love that chainring!! Was Bali as surf trip?

Not indoor or wall, but outdoor and hanging: Curtis Odom Wind Chime, 6061 aluminum bicycle tubing and Campagnolo cassette cogs.

Velosteel does not make a high flange version. I am making them for sale and to match my existing front hubs. The first Velosteel high flange hub was made by Bikeguy (Guy) with the assistance of my friend and riveted hub expert Amir in Israel. I am taking a stock Velosteel and adding my own...

First run of high flange coasters are almost done. This is the hub mocked up with the new parts.

The industry standard for this is 3M Scotchweld epoxy.

I have toyed with the idea of an alum and carbon cruiser project. Big bucks though.

My aluminum build, handmade frame and fork:

Bottom Bracket Shells ready to go starting at $4.25 http://www.cycle-frames.com/bicycle-frame-tubing/BOTTOM-BRACKETS/

What is really impressive is the condition of the saddle. With just a little rain these were destroyed.

cman, looking for all of that but it is all about knowing the details. This is much more difficult that spotting a balloon tire frame. This frame was especially tough as the powder coat was very thick. If it had been in original paint it would have sold before the swap even opened.

Late For Dinner: This one seller had a row of six old road frames all with older powder coat paint jobs. All had a taped on sign: "Mystery Frames $100". I checked them one by one, the first five were all decent Euro frames from the 80's that would have sold in seconds at the height of the Fixie...

The Cinelli is 62cm and too big for me so it will get flipped for a healthy profit. I do have a mens Wingbar frame waiting for a custom build with my own components. The girls wingbar will likely get a proper restoration since it is so complete.

Pre-1964 Cinelli Special Corsa, bought for $75, worth around $1k.

Here they are. The spaghetti special is as a big score as the Wingbar.

Mine was a new red one in 1970.

Nope, April 6th San Diego Velodrome Swap Meet.

Go on, beat me up! Sorry but the bikes are still at my buddies house, he had the truck. I will have them here soon enough.

I had a good day at the local bike swap: Complete Girls Silverking Wingbar and a 1963 Cinelli Speciale Corsa frameset! Both stupid cheap!

DJ, I only took a few small dents out, no big deal. I do not even remember what I used. I have thought about making some aluminum fenders from scratch. In that case I will give a complete report.

The flanges are held on with aircraft rivets.
