I'm pretty sure it was original on the bike. I've seen a few with the same rack.

I gave $70 for this one, but it was in pretty good shape.

Thanks Scurry. I'd like to do fenders and the front rack.

What do you guys think. It turned out slick. Seat and pedals finally came in. I'm had a tough time finding 1/2" white block pedals

Please don't cut on that one. I've got the same bike but not as clean. That ones way too nice.

Welcome aboard. Absolutly beautiful rides. This is the bicycle melting pot. You'll fit right in. Remember, patina won't hurt you. (I'm learning to love it myself)

This thing was junk when I found it. My ex has got a 18 month old son that I fully intend to keep supplied with rat bikes. If you think steel wooling a rim sucks, try gluing fake leather to a tricycle seat!

Makes sense. Thanks for the heads-up.

I've got a trike set-up with red rims and 'whites. What about putting that on it? That would combine the two most usless bicycle configurations. Just a thought.

Found this today for $60. It's super light (I guess I'm used to the pigs that we work on). The derailleur is an Exage EX300. The chainstay says Grandis Special. The engraving where the headstamp usually is says "Made in Italy". Thanks

Sweet lay-out! That's a nice red. By the way, that looks like the carpet in my garage, a.k.a. living room. Have you been coming over working on stuff while I'm away?

I've been crazy busy. I finally mocked up the Mutt with some doner parts. I still kinda think the ape hangers may be the way to go. Whatdya' think?

Re: Finally got a swingbike Stop finding this cool stuff! I'm new to this and I can't keep up. So cool!!! I'll post when I find one.

Just thought I'd throw my Firestone in...

CL find, $40. Probably paid to much but the 3 spd. hub worked great and I wanted it for another project (3S). I can't find any info on this bike, just wondered if anyone had any heard of this one. Thanks.
