That could have been nasty. That frame doesnt look very thick. It doesn't happen to be aluminum does it?

I agree it doesn't guarantee a cooler bike. Some very cool bike were built in the final weeks of the build off. For me the build off challenges make me actually get the project finished. I have no problem gathering the parts and coming up with the ideas. Its usually more difficult for me to make...

No time to waste, I have to collect the essential bit and pieces over time. The Ideas have been flowing since before I finished Stock Isn't.

Saw this on eBay last week it came in today. Just a sneak peak into my plans for next years build off. Obviously it won't look anything like this by the end I have lots of cutting and mods for it but the idea is there. It's pretty pitted and has a few small and one large dent.

Yes it does I rebuilt the Generator about 5 years ago. I just dont have anyone small enough to ride it. The old wood is starting to get well old. It really is more for display now. Im putting it up on a shelf in the office.

Re: ANY MORE BUILDERS FOR THE MUSCLE BIKE BUILDOFF? OCT-DEC 2013 Putting some pieces in place and letting the ideas flow, Thinking Unconventional Muscle bike but VERY muscly. Was kind of on the fence about this in the beginning but now I'm Waiting Anxiously. :D :D

VERY COOL transformation.

So thought I would share this with everybody, I know some of us have other hobbies. Mine has been Corvairs since I was born into it. When I was 3 my dad bought this car for me while looking for a pedal car with my grandmother. It is a 1963 McDonald's promo car made of wood. He repainted it, the...

Re: The 3rd Annual Cycling Swap Meet Oct 5th (Dallas, GA) I may try to make the trip up there. Is there anywhere to stay locally?

I like where this could go! Dont have enough room to host but could definitely donate to the part stash.

I really like this Idea, wish NC wasn't so far.

I love that thing, Thanks for removing the temptation before it ended up in my stable.

Re: ANY MORE BUILDERS FOR THE MUSCLE BIKE BUILDOFF? OCT-DEC 2013 I may be in on this too , I'll have to look through some parts but throw my name in anyway worst can happen is I don't get it done.

I use automotive wheel bearing grease in all my bearings. Go to auto zone/napa/advanced or whatever they have by you and get a tub of wheel bearing grease.

I think you should just buy her a new mower for that. Beautiful bike!

AWESOME:!: Very cool design.

I rode that yellow dahon up and down the block. Needs new cables but it rides surprisingly well. Ill have to dig through that cabinet.

Re: How to put a vintage tank on a different frame There is no single way to do it, because of the variety of frames and tanks out there. As Kingfish said check out the build threads for lots of ideas. If you post up some good pics maybe some people could throw you some more specific ideas.

Thanks, the girls 26 is going to be moms bike. for some reason I thought you said 53 but either way Im thinking its the start of next years build off. There is only one other frame style I would choose to replace this one with but those weren't for sale.

Got up at 330 this morning and hit the road at 430. Made the drive over to Jacksonville to meet up with Wildcat. Where I loaded the truck full of parts. There is a sachs 3 speed,sears 3 speed, and a bendix kickback. A number of wheels, a few loose hubs I haven't inventoried yet. About 20...
