My newly resurrected 2003 Trek Fuel. Was rotting away, and I got it from the neighbors for free.....completely stripped the frame down, sand blasted and painted. Cleaned everypart, nut and bolt. New cables and housings, new Cane Creek headset, lizard skinz lock on grips....rides great!

Here's mine: It's a thrift store resurrection.
I've got a grand total of $80 invested. I just put a suspended front fork, and linear front brake on it. The cables are also re-routed for a little added cleanliness. http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...613_n.jpg?dl=1 |

Gonna take this out on the trails this w/e Its a no name frame with an interesting 'yoke' arrangement on the stays, anyone got any ideas? Duke xc forks and a few parts from the shed I'm quite happy with the 32t stronglight chainset that came off a Raleigh, and the magic ratio is 32-14
|
32x14 is gonna be a bit steep for most trails. Better for riding around town though
|
Not mine, but I recently resurected this for a friend after it had been in storage for 6 years.

You know, I've put a ton of work into that bike to turn it from a completely non-functional pile of parts to a pretty entertaining bike. No, it's not flashy or expensive, but that's the point. I've had a blast working on it, and I enjoy riding it. So yikes.

You've got a very nice campus commuter there. I believe there's a forum for that.
All in all, its entire purpose in life was to be a learner to get back into cycling. I think it has done a fair job of that, too. |

my 2 main bikes at the moment. i just got the ccm 2 weeks ago for $10. it needed a bit of time spent on it but it didn't need any parts. the other bike on the other hand has recently had quite a few parts replaced after a long winter of salt and sand. i am hoping to media blast and paint it this summer because it can be fun to ride even in town.

Am I seeing a ZZYZX? And that's your project frankenbike, isn't it? Not sure I ever saw it finished.
|
ZZYZX? the one bike is a bit of a frankenbike. i can drive up and down foot tall curbs with it. i have never really finished it. there is still lots of welding that should be done but i may put off for a bit longer.
|
At first glance the fork looked like it had monster stanchions like the old Bullet Bros. ZZYZX. I was just looking at it wrong I think.
|
they are cheap forks off of an old supercycle hooligan that i had.
