Must be a tall rider. That looks like a 23" frame and talled up more than usual, something you don't normally see.

Doing some milestone anniversary shopping I came across this, a basic old Mercier updated for townie duty.

That's an odd looking brake caliper

Spotted these while out and about. While not a bike it certainly was eye catching. Sure glad my head wasn't in it.

This looked suspicious. Probably stolen and abandoned, a basic GT mountain bike. I hope someone isn't missing it too badly.

Didn't look to hard at the caliper. The bike was in for a tune up at the builder's and I was in for some work and saw it and asked to photo. I like his stuff and thought the head badge was cool........

Spotted at the Kroger
 

Schwinn Moab something.

considering how easy it is to open handcuffs with a paper clip, that would be considered a free bike around here. :p

newer Campagnolo Chorus or Athena I think.

Not only are handcuffs in general a bad idea as a pin of a any thin shim will pop them, these are novelty handcuffs that are designed to take a key or a pin as they have a slide hole on the side to provide access for the pin.

Isnt that slot to double lock them so they don’t get tighter when you get in the car?

paperclip? You don’t carry a handcuff key?

That bike was a bad, bad boy. It needs discipline.

Spotted this near perfect Mercier mixte in the middle of the shopping district this weekend.

Parts looked pretty original.

If it were a cat, I'd have cut off the ears. 😛

:thumb: I wish I saw something like this everyday, so cool.

^^^ And this. ;)

Corey does great work.

Yes indeed - pity this poor pedaling fool and cross his palm with a 63cm Litespeed Alm! I have always been intrigued by the Litespeeds, or other Titanium bikes. I probably don't really need one but would like to try one out for a while. I was doing some grocery pickup when this Tuscany owner had briefly locked up at the same bike stand I was at. He was an older guy, maybe pushing 70. The Litespeeds are non-existent around here.

I hate to be that guy, but I don't get it.

Niiiiice! A bird not seen in public around these parts...ha ha ha.

Legendary!
 

How often can you say that you've seen one of these in use? ;)

An Autobike! With knock-off Killer V styling?

Sweet gravel bike at the pharmacy, unlocked of course. A ti Lynskey with SRAM 10 speed drivetrain, XTR hubs and Brooks bar tape. Me want.

This owner is begging to lose the bike.
It should be yours.

Was circling back to get a pic of a van and spotted these in a dumpster in an alley. Cheapo 3-speeds, a blue Murray and a red Free Spirit. Both have Shimano rear hubs and the red one has a Bike Machine 2-stroke bike motor driving the rear (tire drive). If these had had Sturmey hubs I would have had to get them and I might still go back for the Free Spirit. It looks like it was made in Japan. Hate to see bikes in the trash.

I actually had one of these motors in running condition years ago and sold it on Craigslist to a fellow.
