Digging around the pole barn I found these salt & pepper shakers and thought they would make cool fender bombs. I have two problems, what jewels to put in the tips and how to lite them up. I have alot of generator lites to use or go with LED's. Any thoughts on which would be better?

I got this JC Higgins that has numbers hidden behind the head badge, were these factory stamped or some kinda registration or licensing done after purchase to ID it if it were stolen. Has anyone come across these numbers on their JCH before?

There looks to be an impression on the top but I can't make it out. Maybe the shape and springs are familiar to a certain brand. It dosen't belong on this trike. Didn't Elgin have a circle impression with ELGIN inside?

Me and my friend Moe were buying some pre 20s Indian and Harley parts from an old friend and came across a 24 in. long panoramic photo dated 1920 in his barn of a group of pre 20s motorcycles and riders.

My buddy is selling a few items on E-Bay for me. So far the items up for auction have low bids with only a few days left. Two other items he listed with BIN prices then pulled them when he realized they were listed to cheap. A pair of 1936 Chrysler Airflow tail light lenses for $1200 they were...

My Thanksgiving plan is to drive to my buddies auto farm in Ohio and try to buy a Speedwell bike again, eat turkey, watch football, talk race car's, shoot guns, and hopefully be home before dark with a Speedwell. Happy Thanksgiving Cabers.

A friend of mine is going to sell some parts for me on E-bay, He has 100% positive feedback but he is not a bike guy. Any suggestions on how to list to get the most exposure, should there be a buy it now, with a reserve. He said sometimes they make offers. What should I watch out for. He has PP...

I bought this diary at an auction today and there is a chart in it of world records from 120 yrs ago. Some of them seem hard to believe so I have a few questions. What is the difference between an ordinary and a safety bicycle? Has anyone ever seen a tandem tricycle they raced for time? On the...

Today I tried to do something I never had trouble doing before. Hanging bikes from the rafters, carry a ballooner up a 10 ft. step ladder with one hand then turn it upside down and hang it on hooks. I got eight done then started on stingrays, I swear they were as heavy as the ballooners, I did...

He bought a bike from me and said he would be here at 5 PM well at 4:50 PM he pulled in the drive. When he got out my wife said hello, did you bring any animals with you, he said yes and let her see and pet them. Thanks Terry she was so excited about that. You are a great example of what the...

Before I throw this in the junk pile I'm curious if the bend by the coaster brake clamp is OG or damaged in years of use. I have seen a few others like this, any thoughts?

I'll try this, selling 5 --20 in. Schwinn's as 1 lot for local pickup only. All the seats say sting-ray on them. Except the blue one. The blue one has the SN on the rear drop out not the steer tube. If a bid for all 5 is not achieved I may list the better 2 on a different DOND Auction. There are...

My wife keeps her daily rider in her jeep, took it out to load coolers for the drag races and it had a flat rear tire. I don't know if it popped from the heat. I've had that happen before. I pulled the wheel a 27×1.1/8th schwinn, took the valve out of the valve stem and peeled the tire with the...

I don't know if it's a boys or girls, chassis seams tight and straight, leather has some tares and scuffs but might clean up for a rider, also some stiching is coming apart. Examine pics close before bidding. You can determine the age of it.

Bought this bike today and some parts, don't know what any of it is.

Logged in late did I miss something?

If you're home right now turn on Motor trend TV Ian's building a board track racer.

I've noticed lately when someone posts a question or needs advice on a bicycle problem the knowledge of Cabers with probably 1000 years of bicycle experience chime in to help and share their experience and advice only to find the OP disappear or the only time they logged in was to ask the...

My first step in BA (Bicycle Addiction) rehab happened on Saturday when my wife and I were putting away the 25 bikes I had lined along the fence for sale. I sold 4, I put 14 on my trailer to take to the Canfield OH. swap meet on the 27th and the rest in the pole building when a older gentleman...

Western Flyer, Cosmic Flyer $300 Local pickup only. If you are heading West on I-90 thru PA. to ML I'm 5 mi. off I-90 near Erie PA.

I lined some bike's along the fence with a sign, posted on CL local and pointed 3 camera's at them. We'll see if any of them are missing in the morning. Might have a domino effect if one falls.

When did they stop making them or do they still make them? Where would I find the serial no. It's not on the dropouts or the steer tube? Thanks, it was $10 at an auction. It's the first one I ever owned, the spokes are huge.

I have a chance to buy a Meteor, just wondering if they were produced or marketed less than the others. It's a boys in green w/white pins, looks really good. No pics as of yet. Thanks

I don't know if there is a thread like this but I have a bunch of bicycle accessories and wondering what they would look like if I put them all on one bike. Do you Cabers have any pics of bikes that are loaded over the top with extras ( all the bells & whistles ). If not to ride but just to...

Over the years I've bought or got for free bikes from friends and family. They find them doing their jobs and knowing I'm into them they call me. Some jobs they have are, barn demolition, scrappers, one friend owns a junkyard, plumbing and heating (always in a bacement), dock worker at Goodwill...

Didn't know if there was one but today would be a good day to post some green bikes.
