beer bike

[fast eddie]

a freind tried to sell me a 26" cruiser bike, it was a promotional bike for a beer company, looks they had them painted in their co's logo colors and their graphics on em, nice bike, good lookin, not old, but he wants 200 bucks for it, what is a fair price on something like that?

it really depend on what bike it is and the components that are on it too...

If it's a Fat Tire Ale bike....you better grab it for $200. :shock:

Electra made those and they are worth some money.

Someone showed up on our ride last night on one of these. I didn't get the year but I think it was new and they are now being made by Felt and not a cantilever frame.

 

[Rat Rod]

Yeah...the brandy new ones are made by Felt.

That's a cool lookin bike, and a delicious beer. I go to school about 2 miles from New Belgium's brewery, and I had no idea that they had a bike that was sold to the public.

As far as the OP's bike, how much do you like it?

 

[Rat Rod]

I'm not sure that they do sell them to the public. The ones that I have seen for sale on the CL always talk about people winning them or that you have to work at the brewery for a year before you can buy one.

My LBS has a red one sitting on the sales floor waiting to be bought up.

this bike was a give away from a brewery as part of a promotion, i think ill make him an offer of 100 and see what happens.

looks like the price is right to me!

around here bikes like that go for $300 and better :shock:

Felts and Electra tend to start around the $549 mark around here. Nivre(sp) and Kustom Kruisers $750 +

I recall seeing another "beer bike" at a liquor store a while back. Can't remember the brand. It was pretty cheesy looking. Just a cantilever frame with stickers.

In case someone hasn't seen it. A friends "beer bike".

That thing is a work of art!

Where do you find a fender like the one on the rear of that bike?

That fenders made of 2 fenders.

they look like "Streetsweeper" fenders from Nirve. I have been wanting a set for quite a while. When I do "I gotta guy" who is going to stripe them up for me.

Thanks! Found 'em, the price ain't bad either. Now all I need is about 10 old bikes so I can try out all the cool stuff i keep seeing here. :lol:

Yes I believe that's correct.

that bike is stunning i would have jumped all over that. then striped it down tossed some drop bars on and rocked it. felts in my opinion are the best quality out of the box avalible in a mass produced cruiser.
