Hello from Seattle...I've only recently started to understand the FUN of the classic cruiser. It all started on a weekend in California and getting my first $40 used beach cruiser on craigslist.
Re: Hello from Seattle...Welcome and Congrats on the fresh find!
Looking forward to seeing what you do with it.
Re: Hello from Seattle...That one became this.
![]() Which still needs a lay back seat post, moustach bars and a set of "big apple 235's".. and in the middle of that I found out what a "Dyno Roadster" was and found a frame with decals... That became this. ![]() and then I got an e-bike kit.... This is FUN!
Re: Hello from Seattle...Not quite up to the status of a build, but ""Sirocco" is starting to come together. FUN
Chrome Stretch Frame ![]() 100mm aluminum rim with a 4" endemporph just clears the chopper forks ![]() 20x12-8 slicks finally mounted on wheels that will fit a hollow hub axle. ![]() There are a few other odds and ends I'm still waiting for... To go with a couple boxes of parts I already have... Which arrived today from a fellow RRB member! Two pieces of fabrication... Then it's a build! ![]() First day out of the shop, still needs a little work to be complete. That's "Haulin Colin" who did a lot of the fabrication on this project. ![]() Last edited by mrfritz on Mon Apr 09, 2012 8:30 pm, edited 3 times in total.
Re: Hello from Seattle...Pasco! It's a lot dryer there.
I couldn't resist buying this one. Right now the only thing I think I need to do to this bike is ride it. I'm sure that will change with a little time... BUT.. ![]()
Re: Hello from Seattle...Just put together a 24" BMX cruiser. It's based on a diamondback aluminum frame.
![]() My son just got back... The bars shifted on him a bit when he was jumping. BIKES ARE FUN!
Re: Hello from Seattle..."Black-n-Blue Bomber" a PK Ripper 29er frame with the wheels I took off the Onex. Ok there is a little more to it.

Re: Hello from Seattle..."Angel Michael's Orange Crush"
![]() I started planning this build a few months ago. Its a bike for a kid that has been there for others doing the right thing. Often when its hard to do so. What i didnt know is it would come together just as his dad got ill. Being able to build this bike and give it him as been a blessing. Now along with it i can give his dad and family my prayers.

Re: Hello from Seattle...
Hello there from Greenlake. Just picked up this 1964 Schwinn Typhoon last Friday. I inverted the bars and turned the seat post around and that's it so far. Ape hangers and chrome straight springer forks sre in the mail. Man it's nice out there today. Glad to see the sun for a change right? ![]()
Re: Hello from Seattle...I've been down in CA so the jag and hawthorne have been waiting. Cant wait to meet up with you on greenlake in the sunshine.
Re: Hello from Seattle...This is a fixie I gave to a kid who returned a stolen bike after he had put a lot of his own time into fixing up the stolen bike. It's basically the same bike but better. I told him that it was my way of making sure no good deed was left unanswered.
Let's call this one; "Fernando's Fixie" ![]()
Re: Hello from Seattle...A couple of craigslist finds destine to become projects themselves.
![]() This dyno has to be one of the prettiest pieces of machinery I have ever seen. ![]()
Re: Hello from Seattle..."Old Skool" - It's not restore it's a FUN assortment of parts! FUN to watch it fly...

Re: Hello from Seattle...This is a newer version of a BMX bike. A quadframe that I bought on here with some parts I've been putting aside including a 2sp kick back hub. Just completed the build tonight.
![]() FUN! Still have to add a tan saddle and the black wheel disks I ordered from Choppers USA when they get here. I think I want to paint the handlebars white and add a front brake too. I'm missing a couple of builds... a 26" quad frame and a girls BMX bike...
