Went to New York for a week, got sick while there, and spent this last week at home afterward convalescing. First ride this evening in almost three weeks.
I've never relic'd a bike, but I have relic'd a couple of guitars before, and it's hard to age painted and plated surfaces realistically. Kudos to you on a brilliant job.
Took the ‘51 Panther out this morning for an extended St. Patrick’s Day run. Rode down through the Old Money district of Fresno.
I had been seriously considering selling this bike because it didn’t ride as well as my Phantom. But then I took it out today, and with a bit of fine tuning I think...
Went to a local swap meet this morning where I had the pleasure of meeting up with fellow CABErs @KingSized HD and @Casual dreamer. Amongst all the model a fenders and muscle car parts we managed to come across a few vintage bike vendors, including a fellow whose inventory made yours truly...
Thanks for the detailed response; and yes, my friend was very much into upgrading his bikes as he saw fit; I'll have to inquire if he kept any of the original bits.
No, not harsh at all, I appreciate the honesty. And your comment about originality mirrors my own thoughts, the road bike market is no different than the balloon tire bike market in that regard.
Was just looking at Facebook Marketplace and you're right, there is a glut of road bikes on the...
I have a friend who's a road bike guy, and is looking at possibly getting rid of a trio of older bikes taking up space in his garage: a Bianchi, a Masi, and a Medici. He was told by a crank who works at a bike shop that he frequents that they're only good as 'wall hangers'-- I told him there...
Picked up this ‘89 GT Tequesta this week. How could I pass up that smoke pink finish? Always loved the triple triangle frame, but never owned one until now. All original as far as I can tell, except for the Billy Bonkers I swapped in. Nice riding bike, very nimble and quick.
Bikes are art, history, engineering, physical fitness, and transportation all rolled into one. Every one is different, and every one tells a story. And unlike the classic cars I've owned, I can actually repair these. I only wish I would have found the hobby before my father passed, as he grew...
Haven’t been able to ride for a few days due to an infected ingrown toe nail (0 out of 5 stars, would not recommend), but felt good enough this afternoon for a brief ride on the Phantom
Received a set of CMC rims with heavy-duty spokes and knobby tires in a trade, so decided to try and klunk this '58 Jaguar frame i'd had laying around. The project has stalled and now I think I'd just rather buy more old mountain bikes instead.
Had to return a movie to Blockbuster this morning, so naturally I grabbed the ‘88 Sierra for a pre-breakfast cruise. So nice to ride a lightweight bike again, just wish I was my 1988 weight as well.
Teleworking today, so I took my new ‘88 Sierra out for it’s first extended ride. It was totally bitchin’! Like ohmygawd, it was a totally tubular experience.
Baby got a new pair of shoes this morning. Adjusted the brakes as well, now she stops on a dime.
Anyone have a suggestion for a comfortable retro-looking saddle? I was actually thinking about finding a Schwinn lightweight mattress saddle, I always felt they were extremely forgiving.
