I think you are nuts but I can't wait to see this folder you are talking about. What does this folder do?

folder = folding knife.

pm me with your favorite bike shops.

An Aussie custom frame makers work... And he's a nice guy. A lot of his clients are in the USA.
His waiting list for a complete frame is about 2 years.

I've always been a fan of these:

classic handmade japanese goodness

On a recent business trip to Tokyo, I stumbled across this brand: Kinfolk. Looked very nice and old-school.

Here's the frame that the framebuilder at Hutch BMX used as a reference. (when they were made here in Baltimore, MD) The masking tape has tube names and measurements written on them.

Very cool piece of history!

Nice... All the cool kids are using classic frames like this these days.

What are we looking at there, 52 - 13?

Über Cool "Keirin" fixes!!!

Legendary stuff... Any more?

It's hipster trash, but it looks nice nonetheless.

Not pron, but the Japanese have it down pat when it comes to bicycles.

I was once in Kyoto, huffing up a 20-30% grade of an underpass tunnel, when a 70yo man, with his freakin' wife sitting on the back, came up from behind and passed me like I was standing still!

Later, I was told he probably had an electric-assist wheel.
-The only one that seems to be available here is the E-bike wheel at $600.
-The Green Wheel was promised to be a few hundred but isn't for sale(yet).
- There are others for sale with bluetooth/data tracking/unecessary crap that is also available.

this is my new ride

but I long for something like this

Ditched the '86 Bridgestone 550 for this:

I'm more into off road single track, but it takes a while for our trails to open up... probably not until May this year.

This is my old Cannondale SE1000. The ?first? production suspension frame mountain bike. Interestingly, it had rear suspension and a rigid front fork

vmb · 03-30-2011, 06:48 AM

Isn't that a Girvin Flex Stem (I think that's what they were called) on that C'dale? There sure were a lot of different approaches to suspension design in the early 90's.

CurtEgerer · CurtEgerer's Garage

Yup, Girvin Flex-stem was the front suspension. I think the front fork was called the Pepperoni or something like. Funky bike, but pretty cool at the time.

Here is my new ride, easily the greatest bike I have ever owned

Not exactly a bike. It's the PiMoto -- and I think it's the best looking moped on the planet.
