    ELITISM IN RAT ROD BIKE COMMUNITY?

    Umm well the term "real noobs" comes off as elitism to me. But maybe you wanted it to sound that way. Then again maybe I'm overly elitism sensitive. :rofl:

    Welcome to the forum Lony. Your picture is not showing up for me. Here is a link to how to post images on this forum. http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/index.php?threads/how-to-post-photos.80238/ I suggest posting a pic and your question as a new thread in the Bike ID & Valutaion section...

    TOOL FIXES! Bike specific or otherwise.

    Here is what I do for cone wrenches. I have a inexpensive set of metric combination wrenches made in India that I bought for super cheap long ago. Instead of buying cone wrenches I take one of these wrenches in the size I need, clamp it into my bench vise, and use a angle grinder to get the open...

    ELITISM IN RAT ROD BIKE COMMUNITY?

    I have not participated here all that long but I feel this site has much less elitism than most of the others I read, or have read. Sadly it is definitely here but I do not believe it is possible in this hobby, or any other, to eliminate it. The sad reality of life is there always going to be...

    Were all boy's Flightliners originally red and girls that aqua color?

    Your Flightliner turned out extremely nice. I'm sure you have a lot of hard work and time in it but WoW is looks so nice.

    LTJ's fresh finds: Vintage looptail BMX!

    Like you I never pass up free or inexpensive bikes because even if the frame is not wanted the parts are always welcome. On either side of the globe buying new parts for every bike gets really expensive really quickly.

    Bicycle Demolition derby

    It's sad because it shows the mindset of so many people today. Just about anything that involves destruction and recklessness is popular.

    swedish "gripen" 3 bar klunker

    I like that frame, especially the top bar. Looking forward to see your upgrades.

    Bicycle Demolition derby

    Watching just the first minute of that makes me angry. All I see is a young fool risking his life to destroy a good condition vintage bike. Most of us were rough on bikes as kids but my parents taught me to not tear them up because there was no money for a replacement.

    Spam attached to alerts somehow

    Depending on the processor and GPU 3 years might not make it time for replacement. Comparing its processor benchmark scores to newer ones in your price range can give some idea if a upgrade is worth it. There are a lot of slow processors out there in lower and medium priced computers these days...

    Nice bike but like dezzie pointed out it's definitely posted in the wrong section. If you haven't already done so here is the section to post it and your questions. http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/index.php?forums/bike-i-d-valuation-questions.62/

    Are you sure your computer isn't infected with something? I have never had anything like that with alert emails from this site.

    Ebay issue... maybe

    Maybe I'm reading your post incorrectly. I don't understand how he was even able to bid if he did so on his Singapore account and you had the auction settings set for U.S. only. In my years of experience selling on eBay blocked locations can't bid. Or did he bid after switching to the U.S. hotel...

    LocoJoe's Recent Rides

    LOL! I'm glad a real bear didn't chase you. You're a rider that I'm sure can build some speed but bears are mighty fast and therefore I think you would have ended up as bear scat in the end. :D

    I sent you a PM with my thoughts on this.

    Lets see your winter bike.

    Are you deleting all you older posts here on the forums? It seems every time you get to 30 some messages all of a sudden you are back to single digits and your older post in threads are then gone. I am really confused about this.
