Well I finally talked myself into getting rid of my Mosh Method 24" BMX bike, I hated getting rid of it but I got a good deal and it was time to let someone new enjoy it as much as I did. Well on to the new fresh finds. I traded my one Mosh for his two bikes:

First up is an El Gordo Chrome twisted frame lowrider with 144 spoke wheels and a cool patchwork velvet nanner seat the wheels were rusty and spray painted so I gave them a fresh coat of black and they look much better.

The other is a blue Magna Mountain bike, not too much to brag about but it looks like new and came with a frame bag, an under seat bag, and a lock. Probably clean it up and use it as a commuter.

Then on the way home a buddy gave me a faded red 10 speed starts with an R can't remember the name. (Not Raleigh)

I'll get pics soon as my cam batteries charge.
 
Re: Change of pace

Here's pics of the low rider, I think it has found it's place up on my rack where the Mosh used to sleep. :mrgreen:

Is this not the coolest 'nanner seat you've ever seen? Okay well I thought it was cool. 8)

144 spoke wheels were painted greenish ugly over rust and I'm not about to attempt to tear them down to clean them and re-assemble (WAY too much work) so they got a fresh coat of gloss black. :wink:

I have the back tire to match this one but it's worn and has the same paint over-spray :x so they will eventually get replaced. Anyone know where to get these same tires? Or any cheap 20" whitewalls :?:

The frame has a little rust in the tight spots but overall looks great. When I get more time and money it will get dismantled and get a full OA bath. This thing is pretty bling I can imagine after a RatRod style clean-up and detailing.
