How many Girls Bikes do you have?

[The Renaissance Man]

Lately I have been finding girls bikes that I can't pass up.
I now have five in my vintage collection. Of course there are more junk bikes that I don't count.

Monark Super deluxe, this was the first girls bike that I restored for my wife from several years ago.

Spaceliner, as found!

Columbia, as found!

AMC VI, this is the before picture, I haven't taken an after pic yet.

Lancer, I just picked this one up a few days ago.

I'll add more pictures later after I take some new ones.

I have 4 tank girls cruisers (2 been redone completely 2 waiting) then probably another 6 complete girls cruisers thats just hanging around waiting for me to either use for parts or rebuild for someone. Then a small stack of frames Im not sure why I havent throw into the scrap pile yet.

They aren't girl's bikes, they simply have easy access step thru frames and some are structurally challenged......Gotta be PC ya know.

My wife has 2. One new 90's Schwinn Cruiser and a '54 Starlet I redid for her. I have one. An Elgin a friend left here...I guess it's still his though. That was 15 yrs. ago! Just sold a girls Panther to CCR. My goal is zero girls bikes. Gary

my wife only has one thank God because I gave her Schwinn Roxy away!

 

[LukeTheJoker]

My wife has two, both needing work at the moment, I have probably 10-15 but they are only for parts...

One...and it's my sister's!

Parts not being counted, nor kids bikes, I have the '37 Schwinn 26", a white 7 speed cruiser my wife rides, and a brand new Schwinn single speed frame to build for my wife.

Wife's Roadmaster, she hardly ever rides it! I love to ride it. Rides like a dream!



24" Hiawatha built for my 72 year old cousin, she rides it every day weather permitting.



I also have a future project for my daughter, 24" ladies Jet Pilot & a 20" little girls skip tooth bike but can't remember what it is. It's a build for my grand daughter, she's only 3 so I have a while to work on it. I don't have pics of either of them. So, I guess my total would be 4 so far.

That Roadmaster is nice!

That Roadmaster is nice!

Thanks buddy!
That was before I cleaned it up. Looks a lot better now but I don't have a pic yet.

I wasn't into girls bikes at first. Then there was a needed match to my boys bike. I was embarrassed to have my better half ride her $99 Walmart pos when we went on our rides at the boardwalk.
So I found her an Astro Flite match.
Then the madness was underway.
Here are a few she call hers.
Still have most of them.

This one was added for the niece ....had to be a pink one.
And of course a Schwinn!!

Another hopelessly addicted bike couple. You're even spreading the addiction to your niece. I can tell you've found a home here with the rest of us junkies. I like the pink Schwinn but the maroon Panther is even cooler. Gary

I've got two - a single speed Hollywood and a 3-speed Fair Lady. I keep the around as "house" bikes, should the need arise to have a female bike available...

When I bought this bike, I had my wife in mind. I got it without her knowledge and am planning to restore it before giving it to her.

This morning I had this picture up on my computer and she saw it. I wasn't thinking anything about her seeing it because it's not uncommon for there to be a picture of a bike on the screen.

Then the unexpected happened. Out of nowhere, she said 'I really like that bike'! After a brief discussion about what she liked about it, she asked why I had a grin on my face and I told her that it was hers.

Being that she is more into skates than bikes, it was nice to hear such a positive unsolicited reaction to the bike that I got for her! So, when I get it ready to ride by this spring when the weather is nice, I'll know that at the very least, she will like the looks of it! That's a victory.

Great news TRM!

Luke.

Four of my ten bikes are girls frame. But, then again- I'm married and my wife loves to ride. (lucky!)
Here's the build I just finished for Mary- it's the partner to my red bike.

One for each girl........

 

[CRASH]

I found a '72 Schwinn Fair Lady for my daughter I'm going to restore. And I got a '64 Flightliner for my wife I'm going to clean up and convert to a 3-speed for my wife by the Spring. No pictures right now. 2 girls, 2 girl bikes.

I think I have 5 or 6... just picked up a nice Columbia to replace my wife's Elgin (too sock-hoppy for her).
