    A Tiny Collection

    Another small weekend accomplishment was on my girlfriend's bike. She had this cruiser hanging out in her shed... We put new tires on it and it rides just fine, but I absolutely hated the handlebar foam. It was old, dryrotted, and just looked... gross. I ordered some Electra grips and I...

    A Tiny Collection

    Made some small accomplishments over the weekend towards getting my ratty bike done. (The white one with the green banana seat in the above photos). I got my first lesson in lacing wheels from a good friend of mine (who does some sick builds). First we cleaned up this yellow band that I...

    A Tiny Collection

    Thanks! It's an AMF Skyrider Deluxe... I wish the teal color it is would have pulled over a little better on my phone camera. :] It's a solid little thing, and rides super smoothly without a lot of weight.

    A Tiny Collection

    A couple more little things, my good friend was looking for a simple cruiser bike to ride around town, and actually loves the aesthetic of older, drop bar tank bikes. She isn't a "bike person" and doesn't care about brand, so we picked up this little lady: Another friend got in touch with me...

    A Tiny Collection

    Just going to show what I've got/had. It's not much, but I'm working with limited space. :] Schwinn Suburban: This was the first vintage bike I ever bought... and I did so for the color. I paid too much, cleaned it up, and found those rad tires... only to not ride it. I sold it for next to...

    Trexlertown PA, Sunday October 6th

    Yep, that was the one! I think he had a 26" as well... I needed a 24" wheel and was crossing my fingers to find one of those hubs affordably... imagine my surprise when I got both (for a steal). ;] This and that sprocket are the last pieces I need to put my ridiculous bike back together. Just...

    Shed Find, Any Ideas?

    We sanded off some of the green on the chain guard and managed to uncover some lettering. As far as we can tell from that, it and the frame is a Ross Super Deluxe, we think the rear wheel is the only other original part. I'll post photos later. Thank you for all the help on both, I'm going to...

    Shed Find, Any Ideas?

    I'm also looking for some information on a Free Spirit cruiser I am working on that belongs to my significant other... I just put fresh tires on it, and it's a rad bike! Any info would be appreciated! Thank you!

    Shed Find, Any Ideas?

    A friend of mine dug this out of a shed and said I could have it to start up my bike project. Any ideas what it is? I have been trying to find it based on the chainguard... it's a weird one, that's for sure. I'm not too concerned with value, as I have every intent of a repaint and probably a...

    Another newbie from PA

    Hi there, I'm J. A buddy of mine works on old bikes a lot, and has been showing me bits and pieces of how to fix mine. I have a pair of old Schwinns that aren't really rat rods, but I'm about to pick up an unidentified muscle bike this weekend from a friend and get started on my own build...
