    My First Electra (Ticino)

    Thanks everyone. I picked this up on sunday afternoon and I already rode is 26 miles. :) and 3 miles in a rain storm lol so I say I would recommend it to anyone. Though the tires are not the best when wet. Almost whipped out taking a corner too fast in the rain.

    My First Electra (Ticino)

    It's a great commuter. I rode it today to the office. Though I will have to get to used to not sitting on a sprung seat like my cruiser has. I'm with you on the Dimpled fenders. The 7D doesn't come with those ones so I'll have to buy the dimpled ones later on. Any suggestions on a Rear rack...

    My First Electra (Ticino)

    Thanks! I wasn't sure on the color at first but I really like it. Yeah They are on sale for $250 off and then I had a coupon for another $50 off because I buy stuff there often. Took it for a spin. Here is a pic I took with the iPhone

    Today I picked up my first Electra Cruiser. Its a Ticino 7D. Saw it at the sports store and they are getting rid of them so they were $300 off :D I rode it around the block and it is SMOOTH. It will be nice riding it to the office. Here are some quick pictures I snapped in the Garage when I...

    Tube bending

    One of these will be your best option. http://www.jd2.com/t-bendercomparison.aspx http://www.medfordtools.com/mb3.html They use the most common dies and if you buy the low end model you can always upgrade it to the hydraulic style later for a few bucks. If you buy one of those orange things...

    My 1956 Volkswagen Beetle

    Gorgeous car! I do off-Road racing and a buddy and I are in the beginning stages of Building a Class 11 car. Which is a stock bug. The only things we can do to it besides safety things are slightly upgraded shocks (longer and larger oil resi) and tires. I think we can ad and oil cooler too...

    why arent oven cleaner, xylol xylene, etc removing paint

    Have you tried MEK? you can buy it at Ace Hardware in the Paint supply section. So far that is the strongest paint thinner that I can find. I use it for epoxy coating to thin some of my paint and to take it off when it drips somewhere. But be careful this stuff is awful. Make sure to use it...

    amaes' BeerRunner

    I like those ideas I'll have to move stuff around and see how it works. I had this idea for a light but not really sure how to go about doing it. I think it would be cool to break a bottle right after were the neck goes to its widest point and then fit everything into it. Maybe a reflector...
