Let's see those things never meant for a bike on your bike!

not really sure about this one. they're water bottles, but they're too small to go in a normal water bottle holder so i don't know if they'd be considered for a bike or not

headlight (led, which now resides on the fork)
brake pad
i used a piece of 3/4 inch brass tubing for handle bars on the black bike, but i cant find that picture right now.

Are those brake pad backings used basically as drop spindles on the rear of that bottom bike?

yeah. they would have worked great, except i couldnt find (and still cant )find two matching pads. i ended up using flat plate steel. that bike is the orange one in bare metal. you can see the flat metal in the orange picture. viewtopic.php?f=3&t=38717 heres a "how to"

Great stuff guys. Getting lots of ideas and have my creativity going. Any one have anything new to add?

Thanks for bubbling this thread back to the top. I had never seen it before.
Here are some contributions from me.

BEER RUN had skateboards, beer bottle, beer cans, bottle operner, plus 100+ other beer parts. Car steering wheel, chandelier tube on steering column, etc.



More recently it also had pizza screens in the wheels before it was hung at my buddy's restaurant.



FUGSLEY has water ski rear rack (and soon front rack too). It also has Harley Davidson motorcycle tires.

Hood ornament.



Wheelchair wheels.



Moped frame.



And one I've never mentioned on this site, the motorcycle in which I dumped the engine, and turned into a pedal bike using moped parts. NONE of this one is bicycle parts.

a messenger bag on my main rider





and a diamond on the front axle (no, i can't explain why. if i find more, you'll keep seing it though)



also been playing with some longtail cargo bike ideas. one with a3 flight bags



and a hardshell golf bag



the other is more like a flatbed, but will have a locking trunk, a pivoting samsonite suitcase

[Philphine]

my pimpin' handlebars, from some wrough iron looking pieces i picked up at the habitat restore





my tentative future school colors bike. if i get it worked out in the next couple days, it'll also get a sort of bike hood ornament made from a keychain.

I had an old kickstand that was probably from a 24" that had been put on 40 years earlier so I extended it by drilling an old pool ball. The can is a used paint hardener can which holds 4 C size batteries and has a switch in the cap.
The 8 ball really worked well in sand.
