I'm a bit - no, very late to this thread, but here's my "commutocruiser". Even though I stopped commuting regularly 6 years ago tomorrow, it's still my "commuting bike".

Here's the story behind it: It's a Ross "Mt. Cruiser" sold in the mid-1990s - swingset tubing, threaded BB, stock 5 speed freewheel. I got a pair of them brand new for me and my new girlfriend for about $300 for both in August 1995 (the same week we bought a Santana tandem). And I've upgraded both of them steadily through the years - hers is an 18-speed city bike.

One thing I quickly noticed about the bike - it fit me better than any other bike I'd owned. Its handling isn't fast at all, but rock-solid predictable and dependable - just the thing for demonstrating emergency maneuvers when teaching skills classes. And with the proper saddle and high-pressure tires it's efficient and very comfortable. It was my primary bike from 1995 until 2010, and I put many miles on it.

15 years later in 2010, I finally built up a several-pounds-lighter version of this cruiser with an aluminum Nashbar frame, and this one became my "backup primary" bike. We took it on the back of our pickup our Big 2010 Road Trip to Chicago and upper Michigan, and it worked great with my son's trailercycle. But then disaster struck - somewhere in the South Dakota Badlands, an arm on our ancient hitch rack finally fatigued and snapped, and the bike tumbled to the pavement unseen by me in the truck cab, and secured by a stout chain lock, was dragged behind the truck at 65 mph.

For several miles.

When others finally alerted us to the problem, the bike was in sorry shape indeed - wheels tacoed, components and handlebars ground into stubs, and paint missing from a good chunk of one side. We tossed the wreckage onto the shell roof, drowned our sorrows in Wall, and plodded back to AZ.

Back home, I stripped the bike and assessed the damage. The fork was completely bent and the rear triangle was bent inward, but the main tubes were still in plane and didn't have too much abrasion damage. I resigned myself to making it a wall decoration, but something deep within me said: "can we resuscitate an old friend?"

And I pondered the issue for a while. And realized: We have the technology. We have the spare parts. We can rebuild it. We can make it better, stronger, and... no, not faster. And I acquired a replacement fork, took a broom handle to the frame until the strings looked identical on both sides, grabbed several rolls of 3M Super 33 colored electricians tape off the shelf, and began wrapping. And wrapping, And wrapping. And then rebuilding.

The result: a reborn buddy who now has nearly 21,000 miles under the wheels, many enjoyable commutes and other rides, and still the "#1 backup" to the other bikes.

The current component mix is "eclectic mixed with thrifty" - 26" wheels salvaged from a doomed Giant, a Suntour short-cage rear derailleur held on by a hex bolt, a 40-24 Deore crank I painted to hide the blotchies, a 13-25 7-speed freewheel shifted either by Suntour friction thumbies or whatever salvaged index-7 shifter I'm testing, a comfy double-sprung saddle, a side basket repurposed as a front basket (with water bottle and cup holders inside), a $6 Costco flashlight set up as a decent headlight, a kluged-together super-bright rear lighting system, front n' rear racks, and of course a bell. All set up in a manner to offend anyone's sensibilities to the point where they wouldn't dare steal it.

Behold the beloved mess:


As for the "new girlfriend" I bought the bike with: We'll celebrate our 24th wedding anniversary next month.

What a great story, and a beautiful, crazy bike! A history like that gives it value to you that is way greater than it could ever be worth to anybody else (and I'm glad to see it here instead of as an overpriced ad on the Wacky CL thread!)

Can I get another pic of your cockpit? Is that red some kind of aerobar/trekking bar extension for a more forward handhold?

Also that blue bashguard, is that painted steel or blue plastic? I made a thread one time speculating about whether a 3D-printed plastic bashguard would be strong enough to withstand the pressure from the chainring bolts.

I like setting up my bikes in a manner that makes me happy, but might not appeal to others (it's my bike, right?) I am fully aware that the resale value of any of my bicycles is the sum salvage value of its parts - minus the time required to dismantle it. That's why my request for disposition of my bicycle collection in the case of my demise / disability is as follows:
- The wife & kid can keep what they want (likely not much)
- The rest goes to the local co-op for resale or parting out (likely the latter)

The bike has an early-generation SR touring handlebar (also used on MTBs) with a pair of longer bar ends that provide an added "aero" position when needed. The mirror is screwed to the left-side one. At a bike swap decades ago, I got a bunch of Spenco grips really cheap, and I use them to pad the bar ends. Due to the curve of the bar, there aren't a lot of mounting points for stuff, so the bell tucks in under the left shifter. The tips of the bar ends are useful for mounting handlebar accessories such as a cell phone mount if one is needed for some reason.

The chainguard was a worn-out 46 or 48 tooth aluminum chainring where I cut off the bad teeth and smoothed it out with a file. I painted the chainguard when I painted the cranks. If I was to do it again, I'd probably use more primer to improve paint adhesion (175 cranks on a low-bottom-bracket bike don't lead an easy life).

Love it all, thanks for the more pics! That bar almost looks like a moustache bar.

You make me want to go crazy with my bike.

Here's an old pic with 'circus tent' bicolor bartape

You should practice believing three impossible things every day before breakfast. Down here on the coast in far NorCal it rarely snows and never for long. This year we had snow days. It's been a wild couple of months. BTW, nice bike. Looks like it handled surprise!snow just fine.

I haven't managed to make a routine to cycle to my new job (started November 28). I'm still adjusting to having a job where punctuality is paramount and to getting up at 5:30 every morning. I used to work four blocks away from the current location, and at the time, I believed bike commuting took the same amount of time as subway commuting. It didn't matter that I was wrong. But now it matters since I have to be at work on time.

So for the time being, I take the subway every day, and even though it takes a whole hour, I really don't mind it. I just would like some more time on the bike. Maybe in the spring, I'll find the strength to renew the effort.

So for the time being, this is my "commuter pic."

Thanks! Yeah, I am partial to it.
The tires currently on it measure 38mm- Vittoria Hypers that sadly stopped being produced a few years ago.

Its been a really incredible frame- it spent 4 years as my gravel bike with 2x11 modern drivetrain, old 80s SunTour canti brakes, and 40-43mm tires.
It lived a short time as a single speed flatbar bike with 50mm tires that I used to ride river bottom flat singletrack with my kids.
It was then turned into a 3x9 touring bike with front and rear racks for panniers and a dry sack, only to be limited to a few weekend camping trips because covid hit.
And now its what you see here- same touring drivetrain with an old Sakae triple, but I now have some cheap and good vbrakes in place of the SunTour canti brakes, so the levers were changed to long pull too.

I looked for a long time to find a wide platform front rack that attaches to the mid-fork mounts, but there was nothing in stock for months and months(besides custom). If a porteur/pizza rack like that existed, I would have for sure picked it up and use a bag like an ILE rack bag.
But this setup works great. I need a Wald 139 basket because I carry a 15" laptop and thats too big for the 137 basket. The 139 is BIG(barely fits even with so much space due to the large frame and 44mm bars), but I got the Swift Motherloaf bag on deep discount and am happy with the result. There is no wonky handling, even when there is 10# of stuff in the bag.

New Bag Day!

Last week I ordered the Ortlieb Commuter-Bag Two, which has arrived. It looks great!
I'm working from home for the next few days, but looking forward to trying it out on the commute later in the week.
