Here's one I did. Stay tuned to the bike builds for my latest. :D

I've been looking at this: http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/MobileCube for mobile audio. Not bike related but you could probably rig something up.

PM'd ya.

Yeah. It kills me that someone spends so much time restoring a bike to original condition when the original condition wasn't all that interesting to begin with. I mean come on. Make it better than the original. That's what I say. What's going on here is so much more interesting, creative and...

Hey all. I recently got a chainguard to put on my 59 schwinn middleweight but don't know what the back bolt/screw size is. Anyone have an idea? I vaguely remember that they may be a weird size but I'm not sure.

Greatest shifter placement ever. I did a double take. Nicely done.

Nice. Red and black. Just my style :D

Pashley Guv'nor http://www.pashley.co.uk/guvnor/ I've got this one pinned up in my office. Gorgeous bike. :D

Yeah that's nice! I really like the black rims. I was thinking of that but got to excited putting everything together to wait and paint them. Also don't really have a good spot to do it right. There's something about those red tires that I really like :D

I have a set of electra handlebars that I pulled of another cruiser that I may try. I'm waiting on a new stem. The stem I have is 21.5 and the Monark forks take 22 which I didn't know. A lot of work to get those forks to fit. It's almost not worth it but it was love at first sight though. I just...

LOL! I have to remember that one.

Thanks for all the positive comments. Waiting for some parts to come in but it should come together quickly after that. Still trying to find a decent red/black/chrome chainguard that will go with it.

After finding this site and being inspired by what everyone is doing I decided to start my first build. I picked up a frame off of eBay after not finding what I wanted locally and not having access to a lot of good used parts. I turned out to be exactly what I wanted :D . A nice cantilever...

Yeah. I almost did the same thing before I thought to check here. Glad I did it seems like the older headbadge is hard to come by. Still looking.

Crap! I just bought these. I wasn't worried about making them fit but if they give out on me that's a different story. How do I check the weld (I'm a novice)? Do you think they are all poorly constructed?
