    I just couldn't resist

    Call me crazy, but i just couldn't resist this clean 57 Hornet Deluxe. The crazy part is I drove almost 8 hours round trip to pick it up. I had never seen this color combo before and fell in love with it. Even crazier is that I now own two 57 Hornets and I purchased them both in upstate Vt...

    55 Columbia 3 star

    Meet a nice toy dealer while riding my luxury liner around at Brimfield looking for scores. He liked my bike and we got to talking. He said he had an old bike that I would probably like and that he might be ready to part with. I gave him my card and I rolled off. A week later he called and...

    jc higgins, bmx and muscle

    Went for a ride into Boston to pick up a 1970? Columbia muscle bike. Then traveled 1.5 miles to look at a nice JC Higgins which was too cool to pass up. Went to visit a friend 400 ft away from the Higgins and got talked into a Haro. I gotta learn how to say no. This disease is killing me!

    female Apple Krate

    Got this from a guys that used to have a bunch of stingrays and wanted a female Apple Krate to accompany his male. Since the female version doesnt exist he made his own out of a Fairlady. He really had to customize the frame to make it work with all the male parts. All the parts are from 66-68...

    twin twenty fours

    Pair of 60's 24 inch Columbias. All original right down to the tubes. I know they are not 26 inchers but hey they were so shinny that I couldn't resist them.

    vintage Cannondale

    Did a friend a favor and got this for free. It has a 24 inch rear wheel and a 26 inch front. I was told it was from the early 80's. I know nothing about mountain bikes so if anyone could give me some info on it I'd appreciate it.

    Rat King

    I bought this frame a few months back (love at first sight) hoping to piece it back together someday. I realized shortly thereafter that it was going to cost me an arm an a leg to do so. It breaks my heart to just seeing it sit there so I decided to put it together with whatever parts I have...

    1936 Monark Silver King Wingbar

    Went on a three hour tour for a blue 58 Schwinn Jaguar and ended up bringing this home also. Its gonna be too much of an expensive restoration back to original so I think I may end up just ratting out. I have the original 24 inch rims but these pair of 26 inch Columbia repop rims and tires...
