    GIRL BIKES: NOT JUST FOR PARTS ANYMORE

    Have not seen the parts in person but if they are anything like the beautiful mold he made they look like they are going to be high quality. Going to have to figure out a build for it I think. Price?

    g-ratter's first try-Renamed REVIVAL

    So I can never seems to completely finish a bike before moving on to another. While reworking the paint on Bike Flip I came up with an seat idea for this bike that has been up in the rafters for what I can not believe is 15 years now. If you read the thread it was the first one I started when I...

    LED conversion

    Not my technique. Just something I found on line that had a nice step by step explanation for those of us who do not know a lot about the electronics. I think most members on here are not looking to build future antiques. They are just looking to have some fun on the cheap and if it eventually...

    Making bicycle grips molding/casting?

    Not sure if this will help you. I did some work for a place that was making parts using a two part very thick material and a rubber mold. To help with the air bubbles we mounted one of those vibrating hand sanders to a board and placed the mould on it. While very slowly pouring the vibration...

    Listen to the bike grasshopper.

    For those who have been following my Bike Flip thread you know I have been having all sorts of problems with the paint on it. And I think I have figured out the problem.

    bike flip

    Really hating Rustoleum now. Did I say how much I hate it? Decided to add a bracket for a reflector. Sprayed it yesterday around 2pm and as of this morning at 11 am it is still tacky. I even brought it inside my air conditioned house (78 degrees) overnight to dry. On top of that my scratch...

    bike flip

    Finally getting to put this thing back together. Had a terrible time painting the fenders with paint not sticking then tried to pinstripe and that was a failer so keeping it simple. Still need to put the rear fender on and wrap the handlebars with some faux leather wrap. And even though I have...

    Your opinion on price?

    Not sure if it being a muscle bike will make a difference but the rat bikes I have sold through Craig's list usually go for $600-650. I list them at $800-900 to start.
