Default My bikes! Post yours if you got any!

Back in the 90's I use to ride a mini Dyno VFR until it got stolen. Now 18yrs later I finally got back into riding them.

First off, I found a 1999 Dyno VFR on craigslist for 50 bucks. 300 dollars later it ended up like this.





I coudn't get enough so I bought a 24inch Redline Frame as a project bike. Bought all the parts either new or new old stock.

started off with this.


under contruction.


finished product.






Later, I wanted to find a old school bike so after searching thru craigs 24/7 I found a 1984 GT Pro Series for 50 bucks!!





Fixing up bikes is like an addiction when you start fixing up cars. Once you start you cant stop! I would love to see what you guys are cruisin with! So post it up!

I don't have pics, but my last bike was a Trek Y-33. It had a custom paint job by a Harley Davidson paint specialist. Full out XTR components, SUPER LIGHT cane creek wheels and a Marzocchi dirt jumper II fork.

That was a FUN bike. It was light as hell and had a crap load of suspension travel (130mm up front!). I dropped that thing off of every tall obstacle I could find. I miss it. Fortunately I sold it to a friend of mine, so I always have the option of buying it back.
