It happened to me again today, my biggest pet peeve
I was riding a beautiful bike today. Colson bullnose, yes it is red. At least 5 times downtown people commented that they love the “Pee Wee Herman bike”
I don’t know why but it just gets under my skin and irritates me so much!
Does anyone else...

I found this old ad and was a little confused as to what it is, I thought it was a Shelby airflow, but it doesn’t seem to be.
Any input would be great.
Finally pulled the cycle jockey out of a box the other day to put together for my son.
they are almost always red from what my research shows and built for a couple years in the 40s during the war. They are fascinating to me to watch someone ride It, my son loves it.
Since it really didn’t...

I have never seen one sell publicly that is original till now.
Ok I started collecting and restoring around 9 years ago. Started with schwinns then moved onto real bikes. (Just kidding, just wanted to push that button)

I have watched a few YouTube videos on nickel plating and I decided to give it a try.
the closest plating company to me is about an hour away and the quotes are kinda pricey.

It turned out that I had everything I needed except the pure...
I’m putting together a twin flex and it looks incomplete without a tank, can anyone help me out.?

38-39 or 40 either one would make me happy.

Does anyone here on the Cabe have the skills to make the front trim piece set for the bluebird?

I put in the...

Why do so many bikes that are sold have their asking price or sold price removed? There are so many times that I am trying to estimate values and find that this valuable tool of research has been taken away from me.
If you have done this, please give me your reason for doing so. I really can’t...

A friend of mine picked up this bike at a goodwill and asked me to clean it up and make a rider out of it. Thought that I would share the project on here.
I'm not sure if I over looked a thread dedicated just to the bluebirds, I've seen them for lots of different models.
Here is your chance to show off your bluebird pics......
I'm Looking to start collecting Star Wars action figures again, I got rid of all I had back in the 80's because I wasnt a kid anymore...... Regretting that choice now.

Is anyone interested in trying their hand at lost wax molding and casting?
I made these molds and they work great. You melt the hardening wax into them, they are for WAX, to be able make a mold to be able to make zinc or tin or aluminum light top parts.
I have made three working zinc...
For those who have messed around with these hubs, how do you make it work with a skip tooth chain? I want to keep my front sprocket because of the style of the bike needs it, but do they sell cogs that are skip tooth or do I have to grind off every other tooth?
The other thing is, I see them...
I was wanting to make this into a rider, but don't have enough time to put into it, it's pretty rough, it has a spray can color on it to show you the potential that it has. It will make a great project for someone. Missing a few things but all of the main pieces are there, including a gothic...
Well here is my restore of an Elgin racer for my son. I was planning on a full restore to make it better then new, but the it dawned on me that he was going to use it. As all little boys do he will beat it up for a few years, then I can do a full restore with all the nickel plating and high...
I will trade an Elgin twin bar 4 star deluxe for a metal long nose Shelby airflow tank.

I need help finding a source to buy these grips. My wife's giant suede cruiser fell off the bike rack at 65 mph..... My fault. I have found and replaced all the parts but I can't find these fake leather grips with 'turquoise' stitching. Any help would be great!!!!
Wooden Schwinn Phantom build
I decided to redo, not restore a house painted phantom. I wanted to have a little fun with it so I decided to try to make it look like wood or wood grained. Here is what I started out with.....
I did enter this in an other site build contest but personally I...
A friend asked me:
How do you know if your front tire is on right?
How do you make sure the left hand and right hand nuts are on the correct side of the bike, is it left hand side looking at the bike or sitting on the bike, just to make sure of the proper rotation direction of the tires....
I keep second guessing my choices of what color to paint my Shelby. I seem to see quite a few photos of black and red. Which at first I thought was really cool, but the blue and yellow looks really good too. I want something that says "classic 1939"
My question is:
What were the colors that...
I think that it is pretty awesome that there have been many posts lately about new bikes that are found in attics, barns, basements. With all these finds comes the new collectors that get bitten by the 'bug' and futher the hobbie.
I have a 1950's schwinn coming into me and it's missing the tank. Looking for age and rust at a low price needs to fit the crustiness of the bike, so the repops don't work. I have a few things I could trade for it too. Let me know.

Has any one else had this problem? I was riding my bike the other day and I heard a "pop" and my reproduction pedal fell apart. The whole thing just came apart and slipped right off. Sad thing is this is the second time this has happened to me with the same type pedal.
They could make these...
