This spring, as a hobby I started buying used bikes to fix up, customize and flip. Obviously I can't quit my day job, but either way I'm having a blast. I also enjoy playing around with electronics so you may see some electronics related posts as well.
Two tire and rim setups, paved trail destroyer and dirt track. I’ll likely put the berm master in the front, front tire has a bit more grip to it.
Picked up this gem tonight. Just needs a good cleaning, greasing and a set of, yup you guessed it, ape hangers.
Up for grabs is my 1968 CCM. Super clean for the age. I have it posted for $180, but as always if you DM me we can make a deal.
Both of these oldies are up and running. Forever making changes, but that’s half the fun!!
I pulled up to the hardware store and watched this take place right in front of me. This guy sees two kids walking in the pouring rain while one is pushing his broken bicycle and he stops everything he is doing and spends 5 minutes getting drenched with rain while he fixes this little boy’s bike. These kids rode off so happy and he left with a smile on his face from ear to ear. As a matter of fact, he put a smile on my face too. This is the America that I know. High five to you good sir!
Had to upgrade to a 80’s beach cruiser drive train (rims and crank), the old skip tooth was skipping a bit, and was a bit crunchy. Tomorrow’s plan is to sort out a rear rim for my GT-101, he he, gang it.
Bobbed the fenders on Woody, now to figure out a kick stand.
Spot on!

Added some beat up Ram Horns to the Charger.
I have reached 400 followers! Thank you for your continued support. I could not have done it without each of you. 🙏🤗🎉
Just finished detailing this little torque monster. I’m not sure this thing was ever really used.
I ripped the Kona apart and put her back together today. Key things I did was slam the seat as low as possible, shortened all the cables by 3 feet and flipped the front tire so those flame treads are shooting away from me now, those dang things are hot.
Well this one is down right ridiculous!!! I think Norco and Kona had a chopper building competition in the early 2000’s. needs a good cleaning, cable shortening and that Electra XL saddle I picked up a while back.
Got the Fink back together, took a bit.
She’s in a few pieces now, hopefully I remember how this goes back together, I’m sure it’ll be fine 🤦🏻♂️.
Little brother is a 1969 Charger and big brother is a 1968 GT-101.
