    ♠ RRB WELCOMES 3G BIKES!!!! ♠

    I rented one of these when I was on vacation in Annamaria Island. My at-home cruiser is an electra straight 8, and the first thing i noticed about these bad boys is the size. I'm 6 foot 4 and it fit me fine! My electra is a bit too small. Still though, considering it was a beach rental....it...

    Brooks flyer saddle?

    So I took it off my cruiser. It was too narrow and uncomfortable. Last night I put it on my road bike. It was magical. I get it now. I still haven't proofided it and it's so comfy already. I just had it on the wrong bike :)

    BOBBER SEAT CONVERSION?

    the crazy electric straight 8 build thread just did a seat conversion. Not to mention all the RIDICULOUS AMAZING fab work on the front forks. It's intense.

    My Straight 8 Cruiser. An Evolution.

    So, I don't think i've done enough to warrant a build thread, but I'm really proud of what I've done with my electra given my limited workspace and budget. This is the evolution: Here it is the day i brought it home. Notice the kryptonite lock. The first thing to be added....and then...

    Brooks flyer saddle?

    So I got it. $45 NIB with proofide as well. It is quite a bit less plush than the stock electra cruiser seat....but my road bike has taught me that less is more when it comes to saddles. Rode it around a bit, it was comfortable enough but not "comfy." I definately need the layback post now...

    Brooks flyer saddle?

    Right now I have apes on the straight 8 and I need to get a payback seatpost. I'm also considering switching out to clubman style bars. Honestly, the saddle is only 40 bucks so I'm thinking I should just pick it up anyways....worst case scenario I put it on my road bike or keeP it for the future

    Brooks flyer saddle?

    So I came across a really good deal for a brooks flyer saddle, basically a B17 with springs. Would this saddle be comfortable enough with my straight 8 or will this only work with road bike geometry? I'm gonna be picking it up after work today....so quick responses are highly appreciated

    Electra Bicycle Pics

    Just added suicide shifter. I know its a shimano 333, but it doesn't look like the normal click sticks. And with how close it is to the spinning spokes.....it may be suicide on the fingers!

    Rat Rod Bikes Stickers ?

    perhaps pictures with a ruler for scale? I have a feeling that top black and white one would look awesome on the chainstay on the "ugly" side....assuming its the right size
