    Burner Cruiser (and how-to make a simple jig)

    Since I posted my recent build, I thought you may want to see what I did back in 2012. I apologize, for some reason the rest of pics aren't showing up on my computer. This was a bike built for Burning Man, thats why it may be a little crazy compared to some other stuff people ride down your...

    O'Curren builds a coaster brake racer

    I haven't been on here in a while, but since I just finished up a bike I thought it'd be nice to share. Some creativity, and just a little bit of skill and knowledge can go a long way. I made a bike, and it rides great. This was a build, mainly, for the Coaster Brake Challenge that goes on out...

    Need to find tandem crankset/arm

    I bought a Santana tandem a few months ago. It's pretty good, except- the front crankset, captain's, needs a new right side arm. I'd take just one or buy a whole captains crankset.

    Raleigh coaster-brake mountain bike

It's simple; needed a coaster brake so search craigslist and I find this sweet Raleigh beach cruiser. It was in good shape...

    You "walk" your dog on a bike?

    I still don't know what this bike is (hint hint, someone tell me) but with it's 3 speed and low sitting height it make a great dog walking bike. Rufus digs it.

    My '72 MantaRay build

    Welcome to me! I started building up this junk frame I came across. I had to search for info online and came across this wonderful forum! So I guess I'll share with everyone- It's a '72 Schwinn Manta Ray (24" wheel)(I was calling this a Fastback at first, due to some slight ignorance on the...

    I Have Bikes!

    Hey everybody! I found this site through the cabe and this seems much more my speed! I have a ridiculous custom lowrider and don't tend to leave anything stock, so this is my world! I'm working on a '72 Schwinn Fastback right now and have a '50 Schwinn and '49 Huffman to follow, with complete...
