Post a picture of your bike(s)
I decided to take pictures of all my bikes. I have started road biking 2 or 3 years ago. I would love to see some of the other bikes people have on gassavers.
This is my most recent bike (yeah a real road bike). A bit impracticable at times because of the thin tires. I bought it this winter for $250. I put a more upright stem on it so I am not leaning over so much. https://a394.ac-images.myspacecdn.com...291ae367c1.jpg I bought this 1980ish Ross a a yard sale for $10 :thumbup: it got me across Iowa last year. It needs some bar tape right now. https://a650.ac-images.myspacecdn.com...aa3472e539.jpg My silly fixed gear bike. It is fun for doing skids when I get bored. I bought the frame and fork for around $75. https://a690.ac-images.myspacecdn.com...3b631aeac9.jpg |
I've got a Schwinn Moab mountain bike, I'll post pics tomorrow. BTW, I see you're from Pittsburgh, do you ever ride the Montour Trial? I'm usually on that every weekend, I ride from Imperial, past Robinson, to Coraopolis and back.

Yeah, I have ridden it. I live in Clairton and the Montour trail is in bits and pieces near where I live. So I go on the yough river trail more often.

30hp of Fury! https://www.imagestation.com/picture/...c/ea33ddd0.jpg This one is "the cow" It used to have a very wide 3 speed transmission as well as front and rear brakes, it's slowly fallen apart to a low speed, no braked bicycle. It has been ran over a few times, but I've been able to fix it by jumping on it and beating it with a hammer, it doens't go very straight, but my Job is close enough it doesn't matter :thumbup: |
Today I bought a girl's 18 spd mountain bike for $25 because I wanted some of its parts for a couple of recumbent project bikes I'll likely not have time to build this summer :)
I've been stockpiling bikes for a few months now. This is the first bike I paid for of the last 4 or 5 I've acquired. Here's my trusty 30 year old saved-from-the-garbage-truck Raleigh and my incredibly useful utility trailer. (I can't count how many car trips I've been able to replace with bike trailer trips.) https://metrompg.com/posts/photos/trailer-detail-z.jpg |
The upside down mountain bike on the roof of the car is a 10-year old GT Karakoram. Hey, it was "mountain bike of the year" when I got it :o

Schwinn S-25 with the stock knobbies but now have Slickasaurus skinny tires that make it roll a lot easier but it really needs a gearing change and better bearings. Attachment 477 Me on the Electric scooter At Larz Anderson Museum in Bridgeline Mass. I set it up with a 6000 watt motor actually I maxed it out at about 7200 watts with a current limit adjustment. |

An unmolested example of my bike and it's winter treads:

It is usually stuffed inside, when it goes by car (which is almost never).
That pic was actually taken in the interest of science, and I only ever transported the bike up there one time, to demonstrate why one should never do that. :) |
