    Bike "fit" in regards to design

    I wont buy a bike that I can't ride. I'm getting rid of the several chopper bikes I have. My two grandsons don't need the uncomfortable things either. I love to ride but don't intend to waste seat time on something I can't enjoy.

    rim refinishing

    I have this Mongoose Justice that I submitted to the Fresh Finds forum a while back.I plan to make it rideable without doing a total restoration. The aluminum rims don't match. The front one is black and the rear is gold. I would like to paint the rear one or strip the color from both. Are they...

    How about a way for viewers to disable avatars? I mentioned them once before. Some are just annoying to see.

    black ? bike

    I've had this bike for 15+ years. It's time to clean it up and ride it. I don't know what it is. The chainguard looks like an add-on. Even the fenders appear to be added on. There is no place for the lower front of the rear fender to attach to the frame. The front hub looks unusual to me...

    I like cruisers

    Of the three in the photo, the one on the far end, the Dyna Glide Deluxe, is the easiest one to ride. The first one, the Onyx 29 needs a couple more teeth on the rear or something. I'm going to count the teeth on both sprockets on the Dyna and see if the Onyx can be set up with the same.

    I like cruisers

    I must like cruisers. These three together seemed like a good photo op. I have others too, including 8 or 9 Huffy Good Vibrations in different colors. :D

    Genesis Onyx 29" Cruiser

    I just bought mine off c/l for $65.00. The ones at the local Walmart now have two rear reflectors, while mine has only one. I like the twin reflectors so if any one on here removes them during a customization I want to buy a pair. So far I like the way the bike rides. The only thing it needs is...

    I have a couple other bikes with beach cruiser bars so the ones on the onyx don't feel too weird.

    my first 29er

    One bike that is on my "bucket list" that I want is a bike with 28" wheels/tires . I also want one with rod brakes. Maybe I can find both on the same bike! :idea:

    schwinn tandem

    I have a bare Schwinn tandem frame. Did the tandems have heavier spokes than regular one-seater Schwinns? To use wheels off of a non tandem should I swap the spokes? Are the holes in the hubs big enough for heavier gauge spokes? What about the holes in the rims? Thanks. :?:

    regearing my onyx 29er

    kenda tires I bought today

    Thanks. The 1956 F100 has a Chrysler torsion bar front suspension. It's a popular mod to these old trucks to replace the original paralell leaf springs and "straight" axle. That gets one disc brakes and power steering. The engine is a 472/500 Cadillac and he trans is a 400 Turbo.The rear axle is...

    kenda tires I bought today

    Check out the Kendas I bought today. They were for my daily driver/ bike hauler. These are the first Kenda tires I've had except for bicycle tires. Anybody else had Kenda car or truck tires?

    my first 29er

    I bought my first bike with 29 inch wheels/tires today. A friend of mine bought it and then decided he needed a bike with gears. I got it for less than half the Walmart price. :D
