Re: Lets see some wierd accessories !

These I picked up at a thrift store after walking by them three times before I realized what they were I dont know what bike I am going to have the heart to put them on,in case you cant tell what they are, they are Spinners for probably a 20 inch wheel "ya see me rolling "[img]http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg195/holyrollin72/accessories004.jpg[/img]

I do love that bottle opener, but I was thinking more of store bought bike accessories.

an old school twist throttle, off of my second bike (mid '70s)

and my old battery powered plastic engine (my dad never tossed it out!) complete with key ignition dial, that switches sound from start up to idle and 3 different speed rpms. still works too! the old VROOMMM 2, by Mattel

Here are my weird accessories. Not really weird but oldschool stuff. Aerostruts and crashbars.

This is what the aerostruts look like on a bike. The struts really stiffen up the bars and make for a better feel. B607

I recently brought home a bike that had some of those bars on it.

 

[jon]

Aerosrtuts, never new what to call them other than struts. i also have a set with the jewels...anyone have a extra one "broken"! :wink:
Also are they made to slide on the bars or be fixed to them?

 

[B607]

The upper end has a band. The plate bolts to the axle. The lower end of the strut goes through a loop and screws to the plate in the appropriate hole. It has a good amount of adjustment. The bad thing about them is you can't use them on a springer front end. B607
