finally found a Wyandotte Jet with all the parts and in good condition. seems like every one of them is missing a wheel or the little rubber nose.

Got a headlight for my Dayton thanks to z-bikes and got this fantastic crock today..
Also SCORED this ok condition DC treasury Shazam comic off Ebay super cheap because the name written on the cover didn't get noticed I guess .. signed by original creator and artist C.C. Beck who died in 1989

just bought this seat for my 50 Schwinn Traveler project 2 minutes ago.

bought some new whitewalls earlier..... I hope I like them. with the new seat and whitewalls my chrome fenders might look bad.

Got a couple of good plates at Long Beach and this 20" fiberglass chainguard

Just a couple items from long beach to help my 1915 schwinn build. I scored a single tube York tire from the only vendor that had anything old, and a set of nos raingutters. Before leaving, I noticed a different vendor had a pile of rims, but at the bottom was a wooden rim with a single tube tire! So I got it! I went to the car and noticed that both tires actually matched!!!!! Both the same size, tread Yorks! What are the odds??

8 hour round trip to the Lone Star state for this minibike.

I have been caretaking this electric assist bike for the past few weeks and it has finally gone to its new owner, my stepdaughter, but while it was in my possession I ended up putting 150 miles on the odometer. It is a super fun ride with a 21 mph top speed, a throttle for no pedal action, and when you do pedal it will push you up hills or into a headwind without a second thought. I would recommend not getting one as I am now completely jaded on what to buy, but I think I am going to go with a Zero Electric Motorcycle and skip the e-bike, but the local trails are perfect for an electric assist so I will probably end up with both. I just recently upgraded my electric skateboard and all is well, I will post photos next week!

Local Craigslist pick for me this week, early 71 kind of minty Typhoon. Little bonus it still had the clear reflector pedals on it. Joe

Aren't those 71 pedals with the white reflectors like gold filled hens teeth?

Kind of rare, I think only made for 6 to 7 months in 71. Not exactly sure how long they were in production until Amber reflectors were mandatory or industry standard.
