Hello to everyone!
A bit late perhaps but here are some bikes i (am) build(ing),
most of the parts and frames i either found or bought second hand.
This is my chop,the frame is build by some dude,the seat,the handlebars,the fork and rearwheel i bought,the rest is found

and this is my girlfriends chop:
I bought the wheels and tires very cheap,the handlebars are new,
i found the frame and fork:

these are our seatposts,made from those mtb handlebar thingies

they are definitly stronger than a bend post,i bought a bend post,and after a small ride it was completely screwed.
how is this for a seatpost :wink:

some other bikes that need attention

Greetings,Karl.

Hey, cool to see you here, buddy!
The red cruiser is exactly the same as my first cruiser.
It also had a five speed derailer/gripshift.

I absolutely love the chainguard on the first yellow bike. What is it off of?

 

[Markm]

don't know what that purple bike is but it looks like a stingray type frame with a cool chop!!!

The second to the last bike is a baaaad looking machine.
What area do you from?

Yo,Easy wassup and tot morgen!

That is what i thought,as your first cruiser has a eurocrankset.
Its probably a Batavusversion of a cruiser.

The chainguard is an aluminium Ardex Solid,i got it from a foldingbikewreck
Its probably antique and it used to feature a goldcolored sticker of a saint with a kid.

The purple bike is a taiwanese"dyno glide" i found it rusty and abandoned after the rearwheel crashed i suppose.

the second to last is baad indeed,its a dutch 28inch
mensbike frame,might be a
hundred years old,completely indestructible.fitted with a 26inch mtb fork
and 26inch mtbwheels.I have another in the attic which i willfit with a 28inch suspension fork.
Those old dutch frames are incredibly tough,thats why they last forever and
ever.
I am from Asterdam,the Netherlands by the way,if that is what you mean.
