There are contributions from six different photographers. http://www.wooljersey.com/gallery/Larz-Anderson-05 Peter Naiman Glendale, WI by: 69.76.64.66 |
| Hello all. I am looking for 26" balloon tires in white for an antique motorcycle replica project. Would you know of anything available other than those made by Coker? Thank you Chris Cardinal by: 24.151.33.153 |

| Those are no different than the 26 x 2.125 WW tires that you can get from you local bike shop. Look to be Kenda made. Your LBS would probably be cheaper too. If not, you might try Maple Island Sales, http://www.mapleislandsales.com/search.php They have a good assortment of old style balloon tires.

| I want to put an engine on my bike, but I don't want to spend hundreds of dollars on some kit. Is there anyone here who has done this from scratch? I want to use an old weedeater engine, fabricate a rear rack, put it on that, and drive the back wheel. I know you can buy kits but i'm trying to SAVE money, not spend it. Any help is appreciated, please send plans, instructional pics, or help to iliveformyking@hotmail.com Thanks again in advance, stephen h. by: 66.196.246.51 |

| Has anyone ever heard of a bike by Minky's Bicycles? The one I have is a 26" with a frame much like the Schwinns of the 50s and early 60s so I would guess this one would be about 1960 because of the condition. It has a 700s Whizzer motor on it. Any info. appreciated. Thanks, John by: 209.131.224.185 |
