It was a journey, but we made it... I give you: WINONA RIDER Built on a 1969 Murray Eliminator base, I started with bones, with the intention of keeping it pretty gnarly and, well, ratty. (build-thread here) My inspiration for the name came from this license plate. It's...

Anyone else have a dealer display bike? They were typically all chrome and fully loaded with the available features. Here's one I had. Was missing the pump, sadly, but it was a smooth ride. It had 3 gears on a toggle, and 3 on the grip. A wild set up that you could combine for a total of 9 gears.

More details to come, in regard to the design and name inspirations, but for now...here is the base frame I will be building up. I have enough parts in hand to make it rideable, but only 75% of what I need to complete the vision. The other 25% is gonna be a wicked reveal, if I can pull it off...

WTB this checkered troxel seat. I am looking for both the red, and blue version. **EDIT** found red version, still looking for blue. Came on middle weight bikes, possibly on Evans Colson. Thanks in advance

Ok, I'm going to take another swing at this. FYI the Pink Panther will still be finished and presented in all it's glory. For now though, I will be building out another '67 ish Murray, but instead of an Eliminator, it will be a Buzz Bike. Big thanks to @Scribble for the bones.

Hello Party People! This might be a long shot, but does anyone have any old concert tees they're willing to let go of? My dad got rid of his when they stopped fitting (long before I showed interest), I am almost 40 and still have the same body type as I did in high school (I know, poor me)...

Hello Party People! Can I partially or entirely grind off a tab without having to move into class 2? Thanks Here's what I am considering removing (at least partially).

Looking for a rectangular headlight or fog light with decent to clean chrome. Doesn't have to be Rampar or Soubitez (or even from a bicycle) just looking for anything in that vein. Please share pics of what you've got (see examples below). Thanks!

So I have built and customized a lot of bikes. Every now and again, my wife will ask me, when am I going to build HER a cruiser. She has her 1969 Schwinn Collegiate (which she loves), but it's not quite the lead sled bombers I cruise around on. Well, I had been trying to find the perfect bike...

I guess Sacramento didn't put years on their plates, so I need at least 1 plate (2 would be great). Thanks

Found this little guy today.

Schwinn Spitfire tire with original Schwinn tube. $40 w/ free shipping CONUS.

52T Monark chainwheel $20 w/ free shipping CONUS.

Looking for just the fork assembly (with nuts and bolts) off a Schwinn Exerciser stationary bike.

Ok! Long time listener first time caller :21: Excited to finally get in on an official buildoff! My build is being christened PINK PANTHER, and I will be building around a 20" Murray Eliminator frame. Just got the frame from @Jaxon last week, so we'll see what happens!

Hello Party People! I am looking for a Murray built Buzz Bike/Eliminator frame only. Need it structurally sound, cups/bearings are a bonus, but paint can be trashed as I am going bare metal. I already have a fork, seat and wheels in mind so all I need is the frame (I have the guard as well)...

Hello Party People! I need a pair of Bontrager white wall tires size 26" x 2.35". Anyone have a set? Open to another brand of the same size and aesthetic. Thanks

Hello Party People! I would like to trade for a 26t chain wheel (sprocket) in this design (CWC I believe): I am offering ONE of the following sprockets in trade: 24t CWC Roadmaster NOS 52t WALD I am also open to a Westfield made 26t sprocket. I only seem to find 24t, but if you have a...
