Thanks, ya the downward V for the cross brace is gone as well. weird.

The Donor pieces, Remove the cancer Cut new parts to fit. New seat post from a donor bike, a little bigger. Mock up and weld. Piece of cake baked in under an hour..

Tore into it, looks like there was no weep hole into the seat post. So Im guessing that it filled up with water and turned into powder. So out comes the tools and new tubes...

You want my address so you can send them to my house? Sweet deal right there.

Top tube rusted away.... What the Hey??? If that is rusted away, I was figuring that all mechanicles would be rusted for ever. The head set and BB are OK. So here is what is left of this Columbia.. Could or should it be saved?? I picked this up from another bike flipper, older retired guy...

That bike here is on C/L for at least $200. I have the same bike, but in green. I love it. Nice find.

Blue Tech, its a 10. The White, haven't test road it yet. Too cold out, Boise is socked in an inversion. 20* to 30* day night foggy cold. Get above or away from the inversion its in the 40's

The Citylight, The one pictured is from ebay. Same as mine, another $20 find. And your going to have to pry it out of my cold dead hands. Its not leaving my collection at all...

Picked up this frame a while back, Craigslist for $20 big ones. I started to build this one on and off for about 2 years. Just about every time I started I had a set back. Just to find parts for this odd ball bike. My plan was to add as much white as I could, make it a full white out...

kinda looks like Ape hangers and road bike bars got to gether

Just to get off track here, I was wondering if those Old Raleigh forks are a week point on the bike? To make it look like a Klunker, add some trusses to the forks. And add some strength to the front end.

I have one on a 45' and a 60's bike. Yes you need an adapter. There is a low buck and a high $$ adapter. $20 to $50. I think CMAN has some links on another thread. Look around and search.

Wish I had the time and 20 years younger.... Renegade Bicycle Tour (Outside) http://boise.craigslist.org/bik/4283245714.html

Looks like my 38', curved seat tube. My 45' has a straight seat tube

Bump for the cold weather out there, Its tough in a cold garage when you under the weather. So today I made an offer on a bike just for the wheel set. A lot less $$$ than for the one 24 coaster. All along I was debating on building one, but $40 was way easier just to buy a bike. Then added...

Looks good to me, better than using a 4 inch grinder with a flap disk. I gave up after 30 second after I realized it wasn't going to work.

Ha, I found them, one set on a normal Raleigh MTB and another set on a Diamondback MTB. Both bikes I had on hand in the back yard. The sets of Canti brakes are not the same but tension set up is like the "U" brakes on a BMX or the "U" brake set up on the chain stays on a MTB. Ya, i win, or...
