Yesterday was a great day. First i picked up a nice Jesse James chopper with a bad back wheel. The spoke anchor ring on one side of the hubs weld broke loose. Cheaply made China welding. Its getting a new Bendix rear wheel and banana seat and will be ready to go. Spotted the bike in a lot of old bikes on CL and he sold it seperately for 20 bucks.If anyone has a kickstand for the JJ let me know.
Next was a Giant Dub in MINT condition i bought by Paypal for 75.00.First time i saw it in person since i paid. Not a scratch on it. They put a rotten banana seat on the bike and had it resting on the fender. I put my own seat on with a proper sissy bar minutes after getting home. Rides super but has short crank arms. IF I have clearence its getting a new crank tonight. Sorry about the reflector glare i was in a hurry to post pics.
UPDATE..changed out the back wheel on the JJ and rides like a dream.
