THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY SPRING BREAK!!!

[American Vintage Bicycle Supply]

Found this awesome bike shop about 10 minutes away from our hotel in Savannah Georgia during my spring break this year! The guy has owned his shop for 30 years and has restored all the bikes that you are about to see. All bikes are for sale and he said he has a storage building out back full of projects he hasn't got around to yet. If you are a local to Savannah or live in the area I encourage to you to stop by :wink:

If you can see in the back room there is a Silverking leaning on the wall. He said I could have it for $250. Unfortunately I didn't have the money...Oh well, I know what next years souvenir will be :wink:

We found this on the last day of vacation so my parts money was in the single digits....All the parts he had for sale started in the triple digits :roll:

That is one awesome collection!
I especially like the Huffman twin flex.

We always enjoy checking out the bike shops while traveling. Always a bonus when they have a collection on display like that.

As the old saying goes if you have to ask you can't afford it..... :mrgreen: I know I couldn't come close.

I saw that it was restored to perfection with my own eyes so I would say $3,000 +or- :roll:

Just found this thread while googling Huffman TwinFlex.
I was in tehre a couple of weeks ago and he has thinned the herd a bit.
He only has one Krate hanging where there used to be 6 or 8.
I think the Whizzer is gone too.
The TwinFlex is still there though.

Yeah I know, I was there about a month and a half ago. He had a lot of NOS part stored in the back closet he sold me, He must be in the cleaning out mood.

There is a NOS Brooks saddle in there, he was asking $50 for but I passed it up.

Went by there today. I am having them lace up my Nexus 7.
I picked up the leather saddle for $30.
I also doubled checked a few things on the TwinFlex again and also looked at the other oldies for inspiration.

I went to the web site.. asked if they would ship bikes... its that or I have to drive 17 hours.. and get three bikes
to make it a good trip

 

[kingfish254]

They have some sweet old bikes. I would be glad to help if you need someone local. I wouldn't really want to pack and ship, but if you need any other assistance, let me know.
