Coast down the street with no hands on the handlebars.
Sit backward on my handlebars and pedal.

Nose endo on the curb.

Wife's cruiser is almost done. Couple of spots to smooth out on the frame still.

Mr.Slave · 07-20-2010, 04:40 PM

is that a brooks saddle?

JasonInAugusta · 07-20-2010, 04:43 PM

No, it's a cheap Bell from Wally World.

Not sure she'd care to have a Brooks.

jsowens · 07-20-2010, 05:30 PM

That's a pretty nice cruiser, Jason. A local guy here took one of those frames, fabbed up a gastank for it, put a 50cc motorcycle engine on it, then built a bike out of it. It's pretty insane. This is turning into a post your bike thread haha. I dig it...I might post up mine one of these days.

No plans of putting an engine on this. Built it for her to ride around the neighborhood with the kids. I have the big chopper to ride.

She just didn't want to ride a mtn bike on the asphalt and wanted something that would have cool stretched feel to it without having to pedal like she's on a recumbent.

We have a ton of bikes here. I have a mtn bike, a road bike, and the chopper. My daughter has a mtn bike and a trials bike, my son has two bikes, and I have the cruiser here for my wife as well as a mtn bike I recently finished building for her. She has a ParkPre Comp Limited mtn bike with her in Afghanistan, and has said she wants to get a road bike when she comes home.

...and I have my eye on another chopper.

I think I would have more bikes than I have now if I had room to store them. I have 3 as it is...a hardtail freeride rig, a fully rigid singlespeed mountain bike that's primarily used as a commuter, and a BMX. My co-workers have been trying to convince me to buy a road bike, but I also want to pick up a full suspension frame for my freeride bike...decisions, decisions.

Eh I tried that, comps suck, makin videos is fun and photo shoots. But I just ride for fun and to talk crap with my friends.

Have fun with the free coaster I can't stand those things, I have to pedal when Im going backwards, but to each their own.

After watching all the BMX events at the X Games this year, it made me realize how much I miss riding, I don't even know why I stopped. Guess I got to get a bike now lol.

My sons 18" Haro.
We just finished painting it last weekend.
This is what it looks like when you give a 10 yr. old the freedom to customize his bike any way he wants.
I think it looks pretty cool and different.

Not yet, he's more into trails-dirt jumps then park is second. He has really good bike control, just kind of timid when trying something new. The most he can do at the skate park is 180 out of the small bowl, just can't ride it out yet.
