Random Bike Stuff on CL Huntsville

"Random BIKE STUFF"

Why would you not list at least a few of the things?  Where did they come from?  Why don't you want them anymore?  It looks mostly new.  I can see some bars, a few tires, and a cable lock, but what else is there?  Odd.

The Crazy Bike of CHVNK666

Those folx in CHVNK666 know how to make some really freaky freak bikes.  You simply must take a look through their page.

GT/Robinson BMX Tallbike

































Yeah, another bmx tallbike.  I found this one on Velospace.  The Bottom bike is (was) an all-original 24" bmx.  They aren't particularly easy to come by.  I'm pretty tall, and if I got really into bmx, I would probably want a 24" or even a 26" bike.

Strange and Artful BMX Lowrider Stingray Tallbike Thing

It looks really great except that I don't like the inverted bottom frame.

Tallbike Lowrider BMX






































It's like tallbike meets lowrider!  Love!

Western Flyer on CL Huntsville

Pretty cool lookin'.  I love the tassels.

Columbia Twosome on CL Huntsville

My friends actually just bought this bike.  I went for a ride on it.  Great stuff!  The rear drum brake is soooooooo cool.  Excellent bike.

Sexy Green Lowrider

Another sexy lowrider.  Two in a day.  Deal.

Decked Out Lowrider Trike

































Woaaaaaaaahhhh!  I needs it!

All You Haters Suck My Balls (the hipster's pennyfarthing)

So appearently pennyfarthings are becoming the new fixie.  This one is really ugly in traditional hipster fashion.  Note the deep v wheel and apehangers.

You Can't Look Cool Riding a RickSycle

I'm sure it's fun.  But it looks soo stupid.

Link to an ebay auction where I found it.

Best Junk Bike Ever

I LOVE this bike.  It is a beautiful display of inventiveness.  I'd ride that.

Push/Pull Swing Bike?

Here's a wierd bike.  I assume it's just an art piece, but it makes me need 10 spoke wheels for my unicycle.

Hot Dog Vendor Bicycle

I think this is a hot dog vendor's bike.  

Lots more vendor and cargo bikes on this flickr site.

Stuffed Dog Bike!

It's appearently made out of a big stuffed animal.

Hot Dog bike

Looks like they built it around a slick of stinger.  Shame.

Monkey on a Bike!

Awesome butler-monkey riding a sweet old bike!

Cadence introducing...KEO

Good tricks.  I especially like the skitching and no hands wheelie through an intersection!

Those Crazy Hipsters!

I know $1000 is not that much for a complete, quality fixie and I do love PBR, but if I had a $1000 I would keep riding my beater and buy some much nicer beer.  

Honestly, This is Interesting

I know you've seen bamboo bike frames before, but this is way cool.  This bamboo was actually grown in the shape of a bike frame!!  That's brilliant!

Crazy Cargo Bike

Finally, a cart-bike that makes sense.  Mostly it just reminds me how much I need a tandem bike.

Another picture and a few more bikes on the link.

Yehuda Moon and the Kickstand Cyclery

I've been reading this for a while now.  It's alright.  It's nice to see a webcomic about cycling.

Neglected Schwinn's Found in the Trash

This video is way longer than it needs to be, but it's still pretty crazy that anybody would throw these away.  They aren't even bottom-of-the-line stingers, it's the really nice upper-line stuff.

Electric Self-Balancing Unicycle

Woah!

DIY Disc Wheels


































































This is such a good idea!  It's just political signs and zip ties.  Don't think I won't be doing this for my self very very soon.  Naturally, I'll paint mine so they don't look like ass.

Found on this forum.

DIY Track Bike

I don't know if this image will show up, but I had to try.  It's also from the londonfgss forum.  Note the DIY steel Aerospoke and the cutout in the seatpost tube for the wheel.

Eccentric Stingray

This is probably the best idea for how to make bucking bronco wheels.  It seems like you could even true them, if you wanted to for some reason.

Found on my new favorite forum thread at the London Fixed Gear and Single Speed Forum.

Old Bikes Restored into Fixies at FrankenCycle

Lots of great restoration jobs at this site.

Even Older School BMX

You may remember this post.  Well this is also cool.  I love 80s BMX.  It's almost like 5-spoke wheels were mandatory.
