Re: BikePorsche Now yer talking - I had a serious discussion about the possibility of recreating a lifesized pedal powered version of 'Mephistopheles' the 21.7 litre airship engined Fiat land-speed racer. In addition to a driver the massive engine bay would be big enough to contain two other...

I bet it needs a good push to get going on that gravel...

Heavy metal!

This thing wasn't in my hands very long before I swapped out the old 4 speed Nexus for a NuVinci CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) hub. Here's the bike: And here's a slightly closer shot of the back end: So, I'm really just getting used to living with this bike and it's very...

Germans use them too .... here's a 'Streetscooter' - http://www.cyclorama.net/viewProduct.php?id=285

As I undestand it there are three Black Phantoms, correct me if I'm wrong. 1) The first (original and best); The Black Phantom which ran from 1949 - 1951/2 ish. It said 'Black Phantom' on the chain guard. 2) After which they produced a range of three Phantoms in Red, Green and Black - but this...

It would have to be a really really good excuse - I live in England! :D

So hard to get an idea of how big these 29ers are without a human in the picture!

No cruisers, no rats, no cargo bikes, no step-thrus. But there were one or two bikes which I thought you guys would like: More pics here: http://www.cyclorama.net/blog/cycle-shows/bespoked-bristol-show-report/

I've assembled quite a large collection of old (and some not so old) cycling images which might be of interest to you guys. Its on my Facebook account here: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set= ... 02c0d94251 Enjoy!

It a nice bike ok but $1K? And a 1930/40s styling inspired tank bike with springer? Carrol Shelby kicked the behind of Enzo's Scuderia Ferrari all over Europe. So they built a beach cruiser???? They should have made a 1960/70s inspired muscle bike to pay homage to the Shelby Mustang at least...

Very interesting, thanks.

Re: Asymetrical trike This is going to be interesting!

Updated, I installed the one remaining original Typhoon Cord on the 'aforewheel' .... sorry about the quality...

Loving your front tyre Baron, they're rare as hens teeth, especially in the North of England - unless you somehow broke into my garage without me knowing!

Who is Burt Munro?

Looking back I guess it was when I was around six or seven and the other kids at school would call me 'Michael bike-al'. Apparently my bike was all I was interested in even then.

Re: PROJECT PORKCHOP BMX 26" LANDRACE (3-11 UPDATE) The feelings of envy which this bike manifests in my mind are almost too much to bear. *sigh*

Outstanding restoration and a really beautiful bike. I hope you'll forgive me coveting it. I worked in a bike shop and I sold many of those back in '89, probably more than any other mountain bike. A very popular model, where did they all end up? If I have one criticism..... In my opinion it...

Hey, hi Boris. No that's not an Anniversary, its a nice bike though. It's a 'Deluxe' I think. It has been suggested that Schwinn themselves ruined the Anniversary's chances of success by releasing their own cheaper copies of it. It's why they never sold anything like the 3000 units they...
