    BoTM August 2011 - Nominations Please

    Yes 2 pics only per entry please. Not really worried about that particular entry though. I have to admit, even though those old Manitous were notorious for cracking I have always wanted one. Certainly not for riding. I remember seeing one in the bike shop for the first time. I started saving up...

    BoTM August 2011 - Nominations Please

    And now for something totally different. Too many clean purty bikes here. How about a dusty old beater for a change?

    1941 Schwinn Excelsior Clunker build!

    I finally got some 13/16 aluminum rod to make a longer seatpost. I have done some rides around the block and I am very pleased with the stopping power of the drums. Once they got broken back in they are very powerful, much of which I am sure comes from the oversized levers. The bars are super...

    1941 Schwinn Excelsior Clunker build!

    I finally got the wheels finished today. They had proven to be the most difficult part of this entire build. I got sick of holding out for a Union front. I don't have the right tires yet so I threw on some Kendas for now. I still need to get a longer seat post but overall I am...

    XTR cranks with Jeff Jones SS mod, xtr derailler

    I modded these cranks myself along with a few other pairs I had laying around but I only need one. Free shipping for all retrobikers. Hopefully selling them will get me a little closer to buying a new frame for the pair I am keeping. http://shop.ebay.com/boogerlips0/m.html ... 4340.l2562

    Shimano XTR cranks with the Jeff Jones SS mod.

    I made 2 pairs of these. I did the first one for a Ventana I am working on. They turned out so nice I decided to do a second. Doing this mod right is alot of work. I can see why Jeff Jones charges so much for them. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... :MESELX:IT Start: Finish:

    Mountain Klein - Remember this one?

    More inspiration These were found in almost NOS condition. The large one had a Manitou on it when I found it but I found an original from another mountain klein. The one with the painted fork was all original. The original owner provided all the reciepts. The paint was truly astounding on both...

    I am fed up with Ebay.

    I like the ones who bid items up to a crazy amount to keep people from bidding just to retract the bid at the last minute so their buddy gets it cheap. If I can't stop my auction with less than 12 hours left bidders should not be able to retract bids at the last minute.

    I am fed up with Ebay.

    Yep, and guess who is campaining the most against the tax? Ebay! Why? Because they don't want the government to do what they have been doing for years. They know they will have to lower fees to get people to continue selling. I hope someone like Google or Yahoo realizes how many people hate ebay...

    I am fed up with Ebay.

    I sold some stuff to a few retrobikers and mtbr members last week and I gave them free shipping only to find out Ebay is now charging a final value fee on shipping costs! If in the auction I state shipping is 20 bucks they charge me a percentage! This is meant to encourage free shipping and keep...
