For those in the Philippines interested in my collection SMS 09206373963. I am clearing my garage for renovation.

The bikes posted are very nice. =) I read the post from page 1

Just traded my Da Vinci folder with this Maruishi Frackers Como. So far I installed new front rim/tires/spokes and stainless carrier. Next week I will be installing new rear tire and spokes.

Mang Boy, what headlight did you put on the Miyata Zigzag? How well does it work? I like it.

I had it years ago. It comes with a dynamo but since I had an internal dynamo hub I had it installed just to complete the bike. It had regular bulbs just enough lumination to see the bike. Will check the brand tomorrow.

OK. I'm interested in hearing about new LED headlights. I have a couple but I'd like to see some more. I also have a Sanyo dynamo hub which works great. I don't notice the drag, so I leave my lights on in the day. I think it can't hurt to have them on.

I just sorted out my bicycles in the garage and had my favorites be stored at the 2nd floor. So far I had the chance to
see what bicycles need upgradings. Just took out the Bridgestone Utility Bicycle for cleaning and preparation for installing a front internal dynamo hub with LED lights, an anti-swing mechanism, and hard lock. Will be posting images of the bike by tomorrow.

Just took out these 2 bicycles for cleaning and upgrading.

Maruishi Fracker Como Family
 

Brought out my Marushi Frackers Como Family for upgrading.
Installed a Dynamo Hub, rear basket, and front carrier since I was not able to get the baby carrier for this particular mamachari. It's now a utility bicycle at the moment till I get the original baby carrier.

My Putchalin now renamed Wallaby.
Will later install stainless basket and rear carrier.

My 1st tandem, a Schwin Tango. Gave up 3 of my Japanese commuter bicycles. First accessory added was a Shimano Dynamo Brake Hub. The fenders were changed to chrome finish but I will restore the original fenders after a repaint.

That looks like a fun bike. I love this thread.

I had the fenders removed for under coating. The original fenders are still under repainting process. So far had the bottom brackets over hauled for greasing. The tandem is in tip top condition at the moment. I will be sourcing for a basket, carrier and LED headlights. My son is excited to ride the tandem.
