Where to find a database of bikes produced in 80s?
 
Hi everybody...! I'm new here, so if this post is in the wrong place, I apologize! I have a kind of vague question to ask..... I would like to find out the make/model of a bike I owned as a kid in the late 80s. I don't have any info on it except for a description of the appearance, so I'm hoping I could find a website where I could browse images of kids bikes made in the late 80s, hoping to see one that looks like my bike. Does such a site exsist? I don't know if "late 80's" counts as "classic/vintage", so that's why I wonder if I might be in the wrong place.

Thanks, you guys!! :)

Aloha. I don't think you're going to find a site specifically targeting "kids bikes of the 80s". Your best bet is to check all the sites relating to classic/vintage and check their picture databases. www.oldroads.com has a very good database. You're going to have to do "the legwork". It would really help if you knew the make. I would say that late 80s bikes would qualify as classic/vintage status.

wow, thanks so much for the reply! I will definately check out that site and see if I have any luck. I can't believe I don't remember the name of the bike.....I know it would help!!! Thanks again. :)

Remember, it would help if you could describe some details, too. One speed? Coaster brakes? Kind of handlebars? Good luck with the search :) .
