Here's mine: It's a thrift store resurrection.
I've got a grand total of $80 invested. I just put a suspended front fork, and linear front brake on it. The cables are also re-routed for a little added cleanliness.

Gonna take this out on the trails this w/e Its a no name frame with an interesting 'yoke' arrangement on the stays, anyone got any ideas? Duke xc forks and a few parts from the shed I'm quite happy with the 32t stronglight chainset that came off a Raleigh, and the magic ratio is 32-14

Not mine, but I recently resurected this for a friend after it had been in storage for 6 years.

You've got a very nice campus commuter there. I believe there's a forum for that.

Yeah, I ride more pavement than I'd really care to, but it handles everything I throw at it. I screwed up my foot, so I'm taking the downtime to overhaul it.
All in all, its entire purpose in life was to be a learner to get back into cycling. I think it has done a fair job of that, too.

He was commenting on the head angle. It is quite a bit slack.

my 2 main bikes at the moment. i just got the ccm 2 weeks ago for $10. it needed a bit of time spent on it but it didn't need any parts. the other bike on the other hand has recently had quite a few parts replaced after a long winter of salt and sand. i am hoping to media blast and paint it this summer because it can be fun to ride even in town.

ZZYZX? the one bike is a bit of a frankenbike. i can drive up and down foot tall curbs with it. i have never really finished it. there is still lots of welding that should be done but i may put off for a bit longer.

At first glance the fork looked like it had monster stanchions like the old Bullet Bros. ZZYZX. I was just looking at it wrong I think.

Picked up this Trek 820 last Saturday, guy couldn't tell me much about it. Could use a pair of tubes, tires, and grips. Any good online vendors for 26X2.0 street tires? Having some trouble locating a set.



Been riding this since 06
