Greg Litecky – Standard Byke Company

Great edit. Being a SBC rider I also like that he throws in a trick I invented! Jump over spine icepick. I woke up at 2AM one night and had the idea so I went down to Rampage and rode till 6AM learning it. There’s a whole ‘nother story behind that next week but you can buy me a beer sometime and I’ll tell ‘ya. ; )

If Woody Had Rode a Fixed Gear…

March 4th, 2009 | 3 Comments | Posted in Biking, Fixed Gear, Off The Wall

Well technically he DID in Quicksilver but you get my meaning…

CR0P_Swarovski-Crystal-and-24k-Gold-Plated-Bike.jpg

Here’s one highly adorned fixed gear that isn’t likely to make its way through the streets of Wiliamsburg or on the banks of velodromes anywhere. The $102,418 track bike masterpiece is hand built, plated with 24k gold, and encrusted with over 600 Swarovski crystals. Limited to only ten pieces, it was designed by Aurumania, a company started with the sole purpose of slathering gold onto everyday objects and thereby transforming them into “collectable art” or the most conspicuously consumptive trophies that only the unreasonably rich can afford. Please don’t show it to pretend fixie lover Kanye! Detailed closeups after the jump.

Strap a Leaf Blower Engine to a BMX Bike

January 7th, 2009 | 3 Comments | Posted in BMX, Biking, Crazy, Motorcycle, Off The Wall

Want to make your own? Via: Instructables & Zoomdoggle

This was one of those projects I couldn’t get out of my head. I had seen, on the internet and in person, the small 2-stroke engine powered scooters which were becoming increasingly popular. Naturally I wanted one, but I’m not the type that would just buy a commercially available scooter that will work well and last for years and be happy about it: I would have to build my own.

This was also a project that kept changing. The initial design worked, but not very well (or for very long.) I kept redesigning as I went along, tweaking the bike for more reliable use. In its current condition it is quite effective at moving someone around and makes for a quick and easy to build project. My initial build lasted about 8 hours over one day. When I hopped on the thing and went flying down the road at speed, I was very thrilled and surprised to have gotten that much of a result out of one day of bodging. While you view this project, please keep in mind that some major improvements could be made to my design to fix various safety and performance issues. If you plan on building a similar design, make sure check out the lessons learned step before you build.

Slash Rides BMX

December 3rd, 2008 | 5 Comments | Posted in BMX, Biking, Music

Slash from Guns and Roses riding around his BMX bike in between shows. It’s Slash for sure even though I know it’s difficult to see him behind those gigantic handlebars.

I know this was from the late eighties but that bike looks like it much older. Any ideas on what kind of bike he’s riding in this?

Chinese Democracy anyone?

Ebay Sale – Hutch Pro Star Complete

November 23rd, 2008 | 4 Comments | Posted in BMX, Biking, Old School

After sitting in a basement for 22 years this guy has decided to sell his bragging piece for $2500+!

From the EBAY ad:

I do not think I have left anything out, if so let me know… This bike is in absolutely incredible condition, it looks like it was JUST BOUGHT. Again, Please let me stress that this is 100% original, NOTHING HAS EVER BEEN RECHROMED, and DOES NOT NEED TO BE RECHROMED. I also included a photo of the rear dropouts, as you can see the wheels have only been off this bike ONCE,for changing the tubes, there are no marks from being tightened down and moved repeatedly. Also, the pedals, seat, and grips are usually the first to go, (people lean bikes against things, etc..) look at these in the photos, they do not have a single mark on them. THIS BIKE will not DISAPPOINT!!!!

Hands Free Bicycle Camera Mount

June 5th, 2008 | 2 Comments | Posted in Biking, How To

Instructables has an article up on how to create a tripod for your bicycle. This website always has some great ideas and projects so check it out regular like.

The instructions are specifically for a digital still camera, but they should also work just fine for a smaller digital camcorder. Shooting video from your bike could be an interesting effect for some summer movie making.

I’m going to give this a try and see what damage I can do to my personal video camera. Maybe this will be my excuse to finally get a Flip Video Camera.

Check out the instructions here.
