    1940 CWC parts donor needed

    So do you want to restore it to a department store bike or build something more like a beach cruiser, a Klunker, what? Sadly, it seems like we've entered the era of "pay to play" these days as donor parts and donor bikes are getting harder to find and more expensive to buy when you do. Good...

    Pre-Ratted Tandem

    Every heavily used tandem you find always has a bent backwards front fork, from slamming into the back of a parked car. The learning curve for the pilot about how long it takes to come to a stop never seems to sink in. Lovely house paint job, there. It's a Columbia frame.

    Worksman rim/tires combos

    early 1980s looptail 26" BMX Jamis Boss Sand Jam Cruiser chromoly

    Got this from college campus community bike shop for next to 'nuthin. Definitely shows it's era with the bright colors and Miami Vice style lettering. Only got one wheel which is sad because the tire has a pattern of sea shells for tread! c. 1979-81 Jamis "Boss Cruiser" with "Sand Jam"...

    Woot Deal

    Had not heard of this site before. I just bought an eZip bike off craigslist for way cheap and am adapting it to a workman frame. The three for sale on woot site are gone, so the price no longer is visible. How much were they sold for? curious.

    random circa mid-80s? tandem

    Yeah it's quite a mess of components, isn't it? I have a '73 Schwinn Twinn and all the part swapping threw me off. Didn't even think about it being a Schwinn!
