    Craigslist nightmares and dreams...

    Hey 5speed, I found your link using that number. I've never seen a CL ad that accepts gold & silver bars/coins as a payment method. Maybe I should start doing that with mine too! http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/bik/4483482015.html

    Worksman Trike

    It was just dumb luck that I stumbled across these. There were about 30 trikes but the vast majority were beyond repair. I mocked up my Coast King Commander with the bolt-on trike rear end from a Royal Enfield and it was ......! That's definitely going to be my next full build.

    Worksman Trike

    Picked up 2 matching Worksman industrial trikes this weekend. These trikes spent all their lives hauling gear & tools through a John Deere and since then have been in a scrap pile on a farm. Both trikes are in great shape minus a little bit of light surface rust. Most of the trikes on the...

    Black Phantom?

    Afterthoughts...I guess it could be a jaguar. It comes with a 3 speed hub.

    Black Phantom?

    Hey guys. My buddy is looking at picking up his first vintage bike and think it may be a pretty good deal. It looks like a Black Phantom to me but without the tank. The crank pattern also doesnt look correct but everything else seems to be right. What do you guys think?
