Found this at the dump shop today, was intrigued by a few things, Ive never owned or worked on a tricycle sow, even though small, I have a couple ideas in mind but there’s a few firsts for me on this build so I’ll rattle them off 1, left hand drive, thats a new one, While looking rusty, the...

Sorry if ya seen this before! but ...Hmmmmmmm

Well I finally started on the bike, I reversed the headlight brackets to lift the headlight a bit, this ha moved it right up and looks way better than where it was before, its only moved about 6" but the difference is huge.

Ambitious needed the slightest tickle in the derailure dept . I couldn’t select the very lowest gear, I need it on hills due to the large front sproket 44T. Top gear rolling was fine, strenuous but fine. So I began mucking around with everything grrrrr bad move, I was lifting the bike and...

So with the painting of "Ambitious Muscle" last week (even though a failure) its given me a bug to go further with the acrylic painting, The daughter and I have began construction of a spinning matt of which we can place a canvas on and then someone spins it from behind and the Artist hiffs and...

With the arrival of the son not being able to say one sentence without the word "fishing" in it ive decided im going to finish the repairs on "Kiona" our beloved family boat. Here it is upside down on old tires, I painted this boat myself some 7 yr ago, it was combination of 2 pack and a special...

As the heading states this is gonna be a very "Ambitious" attempt at getting over the line on time! After staring at the fat tire MTB I picked a few months ago, for like 2 days, I decided it just wasnt gonna look like I wanted so I decided to go with the old muscle bike frame I picked a week or...

Ok so i made up the, supercruiser bit,as in ...not many seen etc! and zero off road capability, only a show cruiser sort of thing. So this old mongoose was another kerbside throw away, bits of this went on to "Direction Unknown", So with the left over parts pile now bigger and taking up more...

Ok so we all know that to make the Quad drifter I used the wheels ,motor and rear brake system off my "hot Wheels Drift Trike" I had every intention of buying a new motor for this but hadnt got round to it, low n behold I found a water blaster biffed out and on the kerbside, I grabbed it and...

So I noticed the garbage truck picking up all the kerbside throw aways in the hood, this usually coincides with a last minute desperation throw out of anything looking udesirable, i seized the opportunity and went for a quick search and found these couple of yummies! 1 one of those springy...

was always an involvement build this one, came in with just over 2 weeks to go, Main goal was a stretch bike with a normal riding position, everything else, color, design, wheels etc was all unknown. Its come out great. heres the build thread...

Not sure so dont ask, have stretching mind, maybe lowered, not fat wheels this time, got about 10 days or so. 2 frames from the kerbside and the old mongoose thats been a donor on about 3 projects so far! Wish me luck

This 30 minutes drive away, probably worth way less in the states , never even heard of this brand but im interested in the age, since being affiliated with RRB ive wanted a really old bike! Could probably find a cheaper one nut this is still very rideable in its current state.... but @$600, AU...

My beloved Dunlop F6 Typhoon, was an entry into the triple threat BO last year but I forgot to post the final pic Grrrr, So it then it got a repower in the form of this 100cc 2 stroke Flea bay motor kit! Without checking first the bike was modified, I then discover my state of Queensland...

Just a quickie thread to show the parts ive begun to accumulate for the next build, sadley it'll never be done before BO18 so im only at a "Gather " stage! I say Non Directional because im not sure of which direction its headed "Doh". as in style ,shape , design etc. I spied an office chair...

heres the official pic for me in this build off, "Princess Harry" AKA "the SPARE bike" came home as a $10 bargain at the thrift shop, needing only air in the tyres and a chicks bike it was a strange decision for me to buy this, but after committing to a project it quickly became a fun thing for...

Had time yesterday so stopped back into the recycle shop, I had a good look around the bike rack, there was few different ones from last week but I found this. Firmstrong, never heard of them but there is a "made in China" sticky on the bottom, so quality wise it really is a stab in the dark...

Ok so heres the official entry in catergory 1 from the "son Of Kradus Garage" So perfectly named because this is a girls bike so it will inherit "princess" the name "Harry" is used because this is going to be a SPARE bike, one for the mrs or daughters if we all wanna go riding, so thats why it...

Found this on the net, I dont usually like this style bike but its a pretty cool looking thing! they want $300 aussie for it, its assembled but ridden in the lounge room so almost brand spanker...... im thinking it could be a good buy n hold .... any thoughts! it may be worth something when...

So its been a while since i visited the Logan City recycling shop. Had a few minutes spare today so I went n had a look. I found this Little ripper of a girlie bike, I can't even see a brand name and its been given a rattler can matt black paint job. I even suspect its been stolen, but its come...
