    My sons new Easter gift!

    My son and I scored this raleigh fireball today. It looks to be in real nice condition and original. The rear hub says 68, so does that mean the bike is a 68? Can someone tell me a ballpark value on this?

    BMX super-moto.

    I'm sure it's been done a thousand times, but I was just playing around and the next thing I knew I was spreading the stays, cutting the chain and a few hours this is where I ended up! I'd love to see more pics of others out there.

    I'm not a gambling man, but! *more pics*

    How could I leave this behind? I know it's from the turn of the century but that's all I know. Can anyone teach me more about this thing? I dare not say what it cost me! What's it really worth?

    Imperial!?!?!?

    I picked this up, next to nothing. I liked the chainring so much that I would have paid 5X what I did! For some reason there is a ton of clearance between the tires and fenders. Yeah I know the tires are shot, lol! But still, it seems like the 26" wheels are too small. Does anybody know anything...

    BF Goodrich/Schwinn question?

    I know that Schwinn made bikes for BF Goodrich, but would a BF Goodrich have come with a sweetheart sprocket? If so does anybody know if that was a random thing or was it specific to a certain year/model? Thanks guys!

    I saw these over the week end

    I went to an antique engine show over the weekend and this guy had these. Of course I talked to him for quite a long time and found out that he does this for fun and doesn't or won't sell any of them. He is not a member of any forum nor does he advertise at all, he's just a good ole boy having...

    Schwinn question?

    I'm wondering if the schwinn tornado (the double bar frame that looks like the old straight bar frame) came with a tank? If so, anybody got one they would part with?

    My favorite bike so far! Who else has one?

    I started this bike a few weeks ago with a simple vision in mind and simple it is. I'm sure there are a million just like it, but I never thought it would be the best bike I've ever rode. This thing is just an awesome set up! It's a schwinn spitfire with 24"X3.0" wheels n tires. I put a pretty...

    DANA transmission.

    I just picked this thing up today, it's in super condition and There was no way I was leaving without it! The reason I couldn't leave without it is because I've never seen one before and I was fascinated with the concept and of course the name "DANA" on a bike! Anyway, the thing is heavy and I...

    A new build and I want your opinion!

    Ok so this is my newest build and I am looking for a cool sprocket to use. I will not be using a skiptooth on this one so if you have a cool sprocket that you might sell, I am totally interested! Post pics of what you have and I'll be choosing one for sure. BTW,...I do have the tank for this...

    Update on that bottom bracket, I was wrong!

    Ok here's the deal. I was wrong about this bike being a Seiberling Roadking! The bike is actually a STELBER! I'm sorry for any confusion I caused. Here are some more pics and I hope to get some good info on this bike and I know this is the absolute best place for that! Thanks guys.
