cool bike :) :) I don't think it would be physically possible for me to ride a bike like that .....how does it ride :?:
I rode it a total of 20 feet so I'll have to get back to you on that. Should be a fun since im only 5'6" and my legs are are fully stretched while pedaling!
 
You found one of those in Rhode Island? Talk about luck. I literally searched every CL listing area for one. There was one here & there but I had to have mine imported from California. I've only 5' 6 1/2" so if suits me perfectly too. I'm definitely changing the saddle - you'd be surprised how much weight your legs take off your butt when you're riding with your legs underneath you.
 
Hey, can you post a closeup pic of the kick stand on your Dyno. Mine came without one and I don't have one that fits in any direction. All of my classic style stands are too wide and hit the back side of the sprocket but I've never seen one that's on a Dyno. Thanks alot. Robert

Rhode Island is so small that I also search the neigboring states CLs daily and I found a guy listed in Boston that had a few Dynos for decent prices that had been on there since the summer. He is an hour out of Boston so I guess that scared people off. He also has a Kustom Kruiser and Taboo Tiki listed for decent prices. The Kustom is brand new perfectly mint and it took all my will to not leave with that bike and my Roadster! Check the links-

Here ya go. Mine is real close to the sproket right now but looks like it can slide a bit left or right.

those dyno roadsters ride is the most comparable. when i take mine to the beach i put on no less then 15 miles. every one should own one. the so-cal craigs lists have a lot of those bikes. we should set something up and ship some roadsters out east

Thanks for the pic - that is definitely a lot different than any kickstand I have. I'll keep looking. Robert

would you measure yours from where it mounts flush down to the tip please,
 
Hi gcbike! YES - that looks identical. It's the construction on the top that makes it usable. The last classic frame (1955) I built up had the same problem I had with the Dyno - after installing the kick stand it's right up against the back of the sprocket. I'll send you a PM. Thanks alot. Robert
