    Powder Coat vs Paint

    I've got a few bikes that are Powdercoated and have striping done afterward without problems. The person doing the powder makes a difference - I've used several, the first one was exceptional and I've only had one problem with any of the ones he did, and it was due to the material. The second...

    36-ers - tall guy specials

    We have a 2000 Coker Monster here with an original Coker springer on it. It's been here since 2012, and gets a little seat time now and then. The smile thing only got lost once - I got in too big a rush to get on it and forgot to rotate the pedals to the highest point before leaning it down to...

    How to Post Photos Since Recent Site Upgrade Work ?

    Oddly, I am using the most current edition of IE. I stopped trying to use Firefox a while back due to the myriad of things I kept running in to. I only use it now for viewing ebay. Quite frustrating. I had a LOAD of photos on this site and several others when Webshots turned in to a pile...

    Lets See Those 26" BMX Styled Cruiser Builds

    These were posted previously, but Webshots "improvements" ended my account with them. the Previous thread was: Formerly Both of Catahula's Klunkers .. DONE! (OK, Almost!) Several years ago, I had the chance to get these two partially done bikes. Once here, they were given a little more love...

    mx bikes lets see them

    I had a little different twist on this - I used a lot of parts from that era, but went with frames that were a little bit older. The first one I found was a '41 Colson 20 double bar frame that I saw, liked and paid WAY too much for! It was then shipped by the seller who stated he was an...

    Any one know what frame this is ?

    The rear fender lower front mount is just like the one on my Ross Cycle-Truck. I had a girls Ross for a short time and it also had the same piece on it. The CT has rear facing dropouts. The rear bridge / upper triangle area construction appears to be just like the Ross too. The girls bike has...

    Let's see some 20" ballooners

    I did up a couple of little ballooners a few years ago - a DX and a B6 style cantilever. Both started out as next to nothing.. Photos below - The DX was advertised as a 68 Sting-Ray.. The little B as a middleweight. Here they are: Still looking for a striper to do the end needs... Rat...

    Before & After Pics

    That one came on the bike. They were offered in the first couple of years sold, then went away. I like the way it rides, I just don't like where it hits me when I get off the seat! Rat Royale REC Elsewhere

    lets see those old school / custom shifters.

    EDIT 3/19/16: Thanks to Webshots the photos disappeared. Thanks to RRB, I am now able to put them back. This shifter still works great and is now 10 or so years old.

    Schwinn Town and Country 24 inch Tricycle

    Sorry - I was remiss. I have one with standard size wheels/tires that is my wife's doggy hauler. It has S5 (Schwinn specific sized) wheels. Decimal size tires fit standard wheels, fractional sizes are specific to certain rim sizes normally. Here's the other one.. Rat Royale REC Elsewhere

    Schwinn Town and Country 24 inch Tricycle

    Originals are 24X1&3/8 with the Schwinn specific rims. Complete wheels will fit up to 24X 2.125 with room for adjustment on the early style rear section. I have one with the 24 X 2.125 balloon tires on the back. Make sure the rear frame is straight! I tried some bigger (but not 3") 24" tires...

    Klunker # 2 of 2

    Good eye, Robert. Front is a 700, rear is a 26. This was what was on it at the time I bought it, and I think it may have been part of the "attractiveness" that made me want it. It looks a little different. I have disassembled it and reworked the rear stay bridge(filled with brass) and also...

    Klunker # 2 of 2

    This would be the second of the two projects I bought from onecatahula a few months ago. This one has taken a little more work to get to the "riding" point, and is now back apart in order to do up the frame. It rides VERY nice! Here it be: I hope to be putting it back together with a...
