My New Bikes

So, with my truck not running offroad, and all the great eye candy at the beach, I got back into my project bikes. Finally got around to finishing up my primary cruiser, dubbed PHAT KAT...

SixThreeZero 3speed


Skull Shift Knob from Pep Boys bolted to front fender as a "hood ornament"


Greenline Bicycles saddle with back rest from Chubbys Cruisers in Culver City, CA.


Matching vanilla color fenders from Chubbys Cruisers.


Out and about on Venice Beach cruising in retro fashion.



I am waiting on my personalized PHAT KAT license plate to come in, and looking at getting a rear rack and retro dummy brake light.

Stay tuned for my chopper bike pics.

 

gnarly bike man.

 

Love it!!

 

Nice........... looks comfy!!!! I miss those bikes out on the boardwalk in South CA.......... Want to go back and visit sometime............ can never live there again.

 

I bet you can mount that bottle holder on the seat back too.

 

thanks!

yah, im actually considering rigging up a mini wine barrel to the seat back with a long straw so i can fill it up with iced water... or other refreshing beverage... hahaha

my 7 year old daughter wanted a cruiser too, so we got our hands on an Electra Hawaii 16" on Craigslist for $60

With an hour to kill, my tools, and some misc parts laying around the garage, we came up with CHUBBZ

 

Here a before and after pic of a cruiser I rebuilt, I believe the frame to be late 1940s.

 

oh, that looks awesome... love the forks...

 

my chopper is just about done...

waiting on the LOW PHAT license plate

trying to find someone local to convert my rear wheel to 3 speed internal hub

might change out the lay back seat post and saddle...
