Funny thing is a year after Dirt Rag re-upped the article and it got some traffic. I got an e-mail from some company saying they loved what I did with bacon and wanted to send me a gift. A week later I got a coupon book with what they claim is a years supply of free bacon, 52 packs. That is enough to kill a normal person for sure..

Too funny Paul!

That's awsome. It's "green" cooking, and it's probably a pretty healthy way to cook bacon too, the grease is extracted with centrifugal force.

 

[Bicycle808]

I'm thinking the bearing grease will mingle with the bacon grease, for a very uncommon balance of flavors.

LOL! My thinking as well.

Oh no, I had it sealed up good enough but my back wheel was covered in bacon grease.

Hooray! I can finally contribute...

 

[Dingus Khan]

Did you get that frame offa Chuckz?

I didn't. I was going to, but then a complete bike showed up locally on Craigslist for just a little more. I think I paid $85, then flipped the HD wheelset for $50.

well I just built this one my take on a klunker as I never really built one it is ugly it is got rust it has cracked tires but man can it handle whatever I throw at it.
1980 something huffy with a bout 3 other bikes (4 counting the stem I put on it) 4 of the 5 speeds still work front cantilever brakes rear side pull reversed suspension front fork and the oversized seat with springs gives it a comfortable ride there was a stem issue so the stem ahs been swapped out since the picture.
enjoy and feel free to laugh and point as I do every time I look at it lol.

 

[jamesdart]

Ok. I have looked at those in the past. Are they knurled for the stem?

I want that seat for one of my Klunkers. Uncomfortable but it looks sooo cool.

They have a little bit of a cross-hatch cut into the center, but the thick finish pretty much fills it in.
