Looks like you’v got tons of good bicycles there.

Keep it up, kabayan!

That Bmax is unique.

Will it be part of your collection?

In case not, i'm just a PM away! :-)

Good day!

Yes, my 1st all stainless frame bicycle. Still sourcing for a 28 hole internal dsionynamo hub and a heavy duty absorber.

Hello Kitty bicycles usually comes in sizes 20" / 16" and 14", so when I chanced to see one in size 26" I grab the opportunity to add it to my collection. Here it is at this time after replacements of handle bar, grips, cables, fenders, and addition of front basket, stainless carrier and dynamo powered LED lights.

My B-max as of today. Newly upholstered seat, chromed fender reflector & stainless bond brake. The bike comes with stainless fork. Will be sourcing for side stand, LED headlight and flashers, carrier, and grips. Cables are also scheduled for replacement.

Forgot to post this white Hello Kit reflector that came with the Hello Kitty bicycle. This image I took from the net. Will take a shot of the item later this evening together with the Hello Kitty lock.

Saw this Cat Eye AU-100 from my friend while cleaning it. The LEDs were very visible and bright.

Is that B-Max actually stainless steel, or is it just chromed steel? Not that there'd be any way to tell without some acid and a metallograph... :)

A simple magnet will tell the difference and when I got the bicycle it got the original sticker noting stainless frame bicycle. I got a lot of stainless bicycle parts and can identify stainless steel from pure stainless. A simple way is applying metal polish. Stainless steel when polish shows traces of black residue on the cloth used. My brother do have an original Japanese bicycle with stainless frame and fork also. Will try to post it later.

You're right, I was overthinking the whole thing. Very nice to have an SS frame.

The best seller bottle holder for commuter bicycles here in town.

Beto Cycling Necessity,
This holder can be mounted on the handle bar, headpost, seatpost or frame with it's rotatable clamp.

Just brought out my Bridgestone Slugger (MTB) for cleaning.

I got this Harley Cosmo chopper this afternoon. The owner bought this bike from the Middle East and was stored for months. Will definitely change the spokes to stainless steel and have the fenders and chain cover chromed.
