Awesome collection of a Electra sampler. Classic cruiser, cycle truck inspired delivery bike and a modern ‘chopper’ style, I even think I saw a townie in your Felt post.

Thanks! I've actually thinned the collection. I had a Felt Hot Wheels edition and a Felt New Belgium brewing bike... and I had a Electra Rat Rod and Black Betty I sold to some friends... Had a ladies bike that matched My men's super deluxe that I passed on to another friend. The townie I bought to harvest the 3 speed wheelset from... Never did though. It's been my "loaner" bike for quite some time now. My dad used to ride it due to the step through frame being easier on him and all of his bad and replaced joints. I've since found him his own Townie... and I keep holding on to this one.

I really enjoy the collecting and riding of these bikes
 
Been absent lately but the bug has bitten again....recently added a Bendix jockey shifter to the Lakester I bought a couple years ago, as well as some new bars....

and last week I bought my daughter a barely used Electra Peace (anyone want a purple Super 72?) And last but not least, three days ago a bought a NOS Khaki Courier to replace the one I never should've sold....got a good deal since it had been at my LBS for like six years and I had CASH burning a hole in my pocket, haha.

Giving this a shot from my phone, last time i was really active here it was before the days of smartphones (well i didn’t have one anyway haha) and posting photos was a total pain. Here’s what followed me home Thursday!
 
I ordered a Gamoh King Carrier front rack and when it arrives I'll have the local powdercoat shop color match it....Beer hauling duty awaits!

The courier is a great looking bike. I've only seen one for sale close enough to where I live to go get... but the owner and I couldn't get close enough on the price. As far as the front rack is concerned... it looks good, but that's about it. With it not being mounted to the frame like a regular cycle truck/low gravity bike, it gets sketchy with anything heavier than a jacket lying in it. Not to mention the lack of a centerstand let's the load shift when you try to dismount.
 
Yeah i figure it’s good enough to haul beer haha. I had a 2010 Felt New Belgium bike with that big rack and i miss it.
 
New stuff came in the mail. Mounted the light high, above the wherebthe rack will sit. And had one of this trucker flaps on my old one!

I’ve known for a while my 12 yr old was WAY too big for her Super 72 and a few weeks ago i found this on CL in Mesa AZ. Well worth the drive, super clean bike and she likes it!

Added a basket and lights, kroozie and Electra Donut bell. Got a little less than three bills in it now. It inspired me to get another big full fender bike for myself, my courier. So yeah i spent a lotta money on bikes this month lol
