This year my collection became complete, except for the few and very far between vintage bikes I want but can't afford. First off is the custom Electra Ghostrider. I scoured Craigslist daily for over 1.5 years until I finally found it. Lucky for me that the damaged parts of the bike (that...

Re: Group Ride in San Diego on Feb 12 - EBF Just over a week to go for this fun group ride!

My mistake. I've never had any bad vibes at the CC rides, and I haven't ridden a vintage bike at any of them, so I assumed that they're open to all cruisers. I never realized that there were people who were actually displeased to see non-vintage bikes on the group rides. That is unfortunate. I...

That's exactly how the Cyclone Coasters group rides in Long Beach went from five to 150 riders in only a few years!

That's exactly what I did, except I bought some inexpensive aluminum fork mounts from eBay. They were too long, so I had to cut some off of each one or else the headlight would stick out too far for my liking. I also bought an old Puch moped headlight with side mount holes, painted it black and...

San Diego doesn't have much of an organized cruiser scene, so why not join a bunch of 'bike-minded' people for a group ride in Feb? The EBF monthly ride has been going on for close to a year now and averages 30-50 riders of all ages. Anyone with a positive attitude is welcome to ride any...

Here's my Electra Ghostrider with suicide Bendix shifter.

I put a Puch moped headlight on my Electra Ghostrider and will be converting it to LED asap! It's a side-mounted headlight with metal motorcycle brackets holding it onto the forks.

I added a double kickstand to my Ghostrider, and it is now my favorite kickstand of my fleet! It's sturdier than single kickstands and holds the bike completely upright! I can even do minor repairs using this kickstand instead of a repair stand.

I added Electra Stream Ride ape hangers (among other things) to my custom Electra Ghostrider.

I don't like Felt's new frame design at all. When combined with the gloss red and gold paint scheme, this NB bike is too 'bling bling' for my taste. The only things I like about it are the redline tires and the saddle.

I'm on the wire with this frame design...

Well, I don't want to update pics every time I change the valve covers, hehe. Thanks for the accolades!

Here's the final version of my Ghostrider.

Re: Custom Ghostrider Here is the final version of my GR. I changed to the narrower Electra Stream Ride ape hangers and added a Puch moped headlight that will be converted to LED very soon.

Now that's one tall bike I'd love to own! Simply awesome!

Re: NEW BATCH OF 100% cotton Gildan - L I haven't washed it yet.

Thanks!

If the red band Bendix kickback hub with 18 tooth cog gives 1:1 ratio in high gear, how many teeth is the lower gear comparable to? Is there a big difference between high and low gear or is it a matter of a few teeth on the rear cog? Thanks.

I bought a large, and it seems shorter than most large shirts. It barely covers my belt, and I don't have a gut. Any way to get longer ones in large?
