First Video

Thanks to Mr. Whiteshoes and P-MAC, I'm working on videos of our bikes. Let me know what you think.

Tricycle

I don't know how old this trike is, but we found it at a swap meet down in Chicasha.  It's pretty old and had a lot of neglect.  We had the bars and fender re-chromed and my dad did a great job cleaning it up and painting it.  We put flame stencils on the fork and side of the rear step.  Since it's for a kid, we decided it would be better to paint the Native logo on the front instead of putting a headbadge on- could have sharp edges.  Beautiful and functional trike.  Thanks to Ruthie at Queenie's for helping us with the colors and design.  She bought it as a gift for a friend's newborn baby.

Cailean's Red/White A-bike

Check this out.  It was a late-40's Schwinn.  I copied the original markings on the tubes coming off the head tube.  We added the skirt guard.  Came out pretty sweet and it rides so smooth.

Schwinn Amanda

We're doing a late 40's Schwinn step-through for a girl named Amanda.  She likes red.  I think it looks sweet.  Should be done this Friday.  We'll be lacing up a skirt guard from the back fender to near the rear axle.

Couple other new finds

The girl's bike is an early 50s J.C. Higgins.  Has the beehive springer fork, a metal skirt guard, and a huge rack.  Everything a guy could want in a girl...'s bike.

The guy's bike is a '55 Western Flyer with the double springer fork and skiptooth chain.  This thing is a beast.  I love it.

Elgin Twinbar

I just bought this bike.  I think it's an Elgin Twinbar 30.  Probably from the early-30s.  This bike is awesome.  I'm planning to keep it, but I suppose if someone offered me the right amount of money, I'd give it up.  It's one of the most unique bike designs I've seen.  I'm having it shipped from Michigan, and I can't wait to get it.  From the little research I've done on the bike, I think they made it from 1931-1940.  From the looks of it, especially the head tube and the seat bracket, I think it's an earlier model.  I'm gonna look GOOD floating this thing down the river trail.
