this may only help a few people if any, but just in case if you ever heard of habitat for humanity, here they have habitat restores. sort of like a goodwill or salvation army store, but it's home stuff, building material, furniture and whatnot. some stuff is new, like i guess contractors or...

i picked up a new model manta ray for myself around the beginning of the month. that's as close as i'm gonna get to a bike gift.

just a plain bfk what keeps it safe is i only have one. found out about them too late. if i ever come across another, or find an older one to be the keeper, suzzzy will get a taste of stingray metal.

i like the look of it, though i'm not much into being hunched over an upright bike anymore (rather have the one uncle stretch posted). i think if it were mine i might experiment with turning the handlebars back up, and maybe trying a 24" front wheel and fork.

still a little arty. both painted this one doesn't work as well with them being different colors i pulled them out and finished them with the thought of giving them away, but i ended up keeping the red one and giving the black one to a christian mission along with a couple other bikes i...

i like this. i have one stretch with just the slightest bit of suspension, but i'd like to try one a little more plush like this.

about as extream as i can build myself at the moment but probaly my choice would be a hannan customs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HD0Uaq56Qg or this one. it was hard to pull out the one pic i wanted, so here's the whole thread. pics on pg2 http://www.forum.freakbikenation.com/ph ...

here is where i stopped at for now. it's been like this for a month or two, but i meant to add another speed result when i posted it the front wheel is a spin carbon mag i got off ebay. the rear wheel has a small crack so the set went cheap. the tire is a kenda rated at 100psi. i found out...

is it worth it? let's just say if it were me this thread would be titled, "hey look what i got for $20".

if you have the space, i'd keep the fuji. they're nice.

i don't know if it would be long or strong enough (truthfully, i'm pretty sure it's not), but maybe a piston from one of those huffy compressors i never looked at the piston that much (i got it and used the swingarm on another project), but if the piston control could be used on a stonger...

with the exception of having to buy a new stapler (can't find my old one, can't find the one at work, and even though one of the mechanics said he'd bring his in today [friday], it turns out i won't be at work again 'til monday :x ), i was able to make a couple for a few bucks each. not...

i had one of these 24"-ers. makes a good rider if you like the musclebike style but you've gotten to be a full grown kid.

i took this pic for another possible thread or question, but once i had it uploaded and looked at it, i thought "hmmm..."

i'm not sure if a sissy bar will work for me (or as i was saying, maybe the idea of how to work it hasn't occured to me). it kinda has to be part of the seat and move with it.

my favorite type of bike is a stretch cruiser (if that's not obvious by now), and they work so much better with a seat with some kind of back rest. i'm getting a real late start on possibly giving a couple away for christmas (i may save the idea for next year since i took off so late), but i...

i might if i were the main person riding it, but it's for sort of a "guest" bike (somewhere there's an old thread where i was making a bike to kind of match my main cruiser. cold weather makes me pull out old projects). i want it to work right.

i could see one at the riverfront park here. lots of general day traffic and bike traffic. might be risky at night though. maybe even stick a smaller one closer to the skatepark for more traffic and maybe put a skate tool or two on it also. or maybe at the bike rental spot. actually i've never...

i couldn't pull that off if my life depended on it, but that's closer still.

that's not it, but it was a lot like that (shoot, if i could get that one i'd take it and rework the bike to use it). the one i'm remembering is/was a one piece crank sproket, with thicker spokes.
