Worksman Low Gravity B Utility Bicycle


Here we have a good workman's bike. I used to ride one of these back in my youth on my paper route, I tell you what. What a beauty, check out the customized fold-away standing rack and the carpeted basket.

The Forkless Cruiser Bicycle


I'm very confused, how do you steer this bike? I tell you what they sure don't make 'em how they used to back in my day, boy I tell you what, you won't find a better bike then a good old fashioned 1930-1950 utility bicycle. 

If only I could work at a place like this..


It would be my dream to work and live in a place like this, filled with hundreds of bikes. I would get up every morning and start restoring and fixing bikes all day until I go to sleep. Boy I tell you what, this is paradise.

.

A sad day for bikes.


Such a good bike, what a shame.. Brings a tear to my eye. I believe this is a 1938 Huffman.

An English Legend


An English three speed bike from mid-century. Complete with white-wall tires. Boy I tell you what, I'd trade my car in for this beauty any day of the week.

My bike


Here's my bike of choice. A 1960 R.J. Quinn. Notice the back wheel is slightly smaller then the front, this is not a manufacturers defect, it is specially designed for wind resistance and racing.

Big Rig


Now this is a nice bike, Got some big wheels great for any terrain. Nice colors too, a real winner.

Aero




Hey guys, here we have a nice restored classical Aero probably from the 1970s. This is a nice bike.
