Finally got my 20's Excelsior hung up on my wall. All my friends think I am crazy :D

Got my Nexus inner 7 speed coaster brake hub in yesterday. I haven't rode cause of the weather but I must say I like the ratios. Also I got a Protege 9.0 computer with temperature. I tried to hide the cables as much as possible, so there might have to be a shifter fabbin project going on soon...

Last week we moved the bike shop I work at from its location downtown. We had some prewar and postwar bikes on display and dont have much room at our new location so I got this 1925 Excelsior mens. I am planning on redoing it and using it as wall art in my living room. I am going to go with...

Here is a pic of one of the 1OFF crews bikes. It's a Torker Black Solomen complete. He wanted it to POP out at you so my buddy mixed up some some custom paint and shot it. I ordered him some 144 spoke wheels and threw it together for him. We had this bike at the Ann Arbor show last year and...

Last week at work a lady came in with a 80's J.C. Higgins 3 speed with a Bumble Bike 34cc 2 stroke motor on the back of it. She told me she just wanted to get rid of it so I got it off of her. It hasn't been ran since 1993 so i drained the tank and put some new premix in it and got it to run...
