crazy vintage shiz

Were Kleins ever good, other than having nice paint? In my time they were always shit bikes.

That could be worth $5k if he puts in storage right now and stores it for 100 years.

boom, why dont you use your craigslist prowess to find me a roadie i can convert into a single speed thats less than 800 dollars.. (rant: damn hipsters jacking up the prices /end rant)

i'm on it. what size?

hey , i never said " hate " , and i never said " wah , wah , wah " :lol:

yeah sorry i may have taken some liberties in quoting you

I have a set of black Cook Bros cranks. A matching BB would be awesome.

there's your dh crank conundrum solved!

werd, in 2111 the salvage price of aluminum will likely be through the roof

personally i wouldn't pay 1/10 of what he's asking for that thing. but i appreciate the aesthetics and history, and figured others might too

i'm on it. what size?

good question. im 5'11ish. 56-58cm prob.

edit… budget = small. maybe im weetarded, but i feel like i should be able to build a decent single speed commuter for less than 400-500

i remember drooling over the paint jobs at JH - oh, and the cables running through the frame was 'revolutionary' :lol:

rain' , start your project at our community bikes . . . aside from the wheels , i put together this years' 'cross bike for less than 200 . and grovelling through the bins is half the fun .

talk to a guy named jesse . tell him what you want and what your budget is .

good music at that place too .

way too big for you rain, but a super sweet deal for a biggun

ocb is not a good place to look for a frame/bike these days - they know what the hipster are willing to pay and price accordingly. also a very frustrating place to get stuff and work done unless you a) know exactly what you are doing and/or b) work with jesse

I will search the garage and pm when I find it. Deal?
