By the way the front forks are bent, not sure if a bike shop can repair it or not. The previous owner tried to fix it himself with less that stellar results judging by the gouges in the fork tube( took it apart to regrease the bearings and saw the damage first hand). Just thought you should...

I would prefer an even trade for another bike, but is a $100 + shipping too much? I have to get rid of it. I realized I can't bring myself to restore it or modify it. It would be better to give someone who wants it and will actually do something with it. I will list it in the classified section...

Alright, this isn't exactly a new find since I've had this bike for over 20 years, but I need fresh eyes and opions about this bike. It's a 1964 Monark Silver King by Huffy. Granted it isn't the most collectible style or make, but it is a survivor. As far as I can tell everything is original...

I'm probably going to send the fenders out to Wes The Fender Doctor soon, he just cut me a coupla keys for the locking springer. Just got some grips, they're repops but they will do until I locate a nice pair of originals. Don't think I'll put a tank back on it unless I can get a good deal on an...

Chimi, the pink looks good! but I agree with you, I like the blue. If it were up to me I'ld leave it alone, I generally try to leave my bikes as original as possible. I found a pair of metallic pink Schwinn approved Slim-Line grips but the guy just wants to much. Send me a pic I would definitly...

Beautiful bike, very nice lines. Great job!

Here is my latest bike. An original 3 speed 1952 Black Phantom. I am torn about what to do with this bike. I had plans to restore it, but now i'm thinking I'll repair it and ride it as an original Rat Rod. Pretty cool huh? Tell me what you think. The tires are original Goodyear AirWheels that...

Sorry didn't mean to jump the gun, just found this site. I didn't realize there were as many bike nuts out there as there is, at least I'm not alone. Little bit about me, I'm 40 something, I live near Raleigh,NC and have a small collection of old cruisers and middlewieghts. I was bitten by the...
