[MENTION=422753]ModManZZZ[/MENTION] Nice to see I'm not the only sentimental one here! :)
"Juggernaut" is a work-in-progress, I have the vast majority of the parts I need, just need the time to install 'em. It's also been a great way to learn - I've gone from knowing nothing about bike mechanics to knowing next-to-nothing! Hope to start commuting by the end of the month. |

My mom's bike for her exercise, cruising, and commuting, and it's her favorite. Bought in year 1981. It's an old school schwinn bmx model I think. She's not capable of riding/balancing a two wheelers because she's old and it's dangerous for her that's why I went to metalshop to wheld me a balancer wheels based on my ilustrated plan/scheme. It's now a quadracycle. :cool: http://s28.postimg.org/5k0e0glp9/IMG...403_164338.jpg

It's fast because the basket is perforated, very aero.

Fuji Absolute 1.7 :) thats my baby! |
[MENTION=252435]RubeRad[/MENTION] [MENTION=336334]the sci guy[/MENTION] I mean, it's my fastest bike I have compared to my bmx, non-suspension mountain bike and folding bike because it is the lightest and has thin tires, but ofcourse not as fast as racing road bikes and carbon bikes. :)

Been having fun with the SS Feather, on my 20 mile RT commute |
My new commuter bike
Motobecane Century Elite Ti Disc with Burly Travoy trailer. Sporting a Fly 6 rear camera, Rideye Front camera, NoName really bright LED light. Planet Bike Siperflash. Tubus rack. SKS fenders Ortlieb QL3 mount Downtown and Office bags, Garmin 520 (no need, but what the heck) and perhaps most importantly an REI coffee mug. I don't usually use the trailer, but I had packages to mail. https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1507/...2cb7da4b_z.jpg Motobecane Century Elite Ti Disc by curtis corlew, on Flickr |

Just rebuilt 1987 Schwinn Cimarron for commute and occasional CX duties. It is now sporting drop bar conversion.

Schwinn Discover. I commute via train for 40 miles. I ride 10 miles to and from home to train station, and 4 miles to and from train in L.A. area. Car less commute in So. Cal. Getting a new Diamondback Century 1. The Schwinn keeps breaking spokes. I want to start riding more, so I am upgrading my ride. Lots of biking in south Orange County. |
If you are a heavier rider (200+ pounds) you might be too much for those lower-spoke wheels, particularly as they are laced with an eye-catching, but not traditional/strong pattern. Consider replacing with a strong 3x rear wheel, and you shouldn't need a whole new bike (unless you want a whole new bike, there's nothing wrong with that)

OK, separate threads for "post your bike with geese" and "post your bike with ducks"... excellent.
