Bikes: 1995 Trek 520 is the current primary bike.

tape with stuff under the tape to make it look like tape over rust. Some PVC tubing held on with pipe clamps, not hose clamps but the u-bolt style pipe clamps to make it look like the frame broke and you bandaided it back together. Stick on a couple of actual bandaids to add to the effect. Throw on a rear rack but make it look like it is about to fall off somehow, loose bolts with the nuts help on with locktite but spaced out a bit. Add some rattle pieces and some old loose metal fenders to make it sound like a horse and carriage with bells on clanging its way down the road. A broken headlight dangling with bailing wire can help too.
