Euro style Hotwire? So you gonna find a small diameter 2" wide rim to squeeze some narrow rubber over?  haha, hadn't thought about stretchy rubber on wide rims  I took a photo of the bike at the weekend with an eye to starting a thread about its strip and rebuild... it'll probably take me some time to do what I want to do. I'll stick a thread up tomorrow when I get the picture off my camera  |

I think I googled for lowrider bicycle parts a while ago out of interest and a UK company with associated galleries and forum came up. No idea what its was called though. I just made it up as I went along. |

Currently driving a '68 Karmann Ghia as my daily. Don't ask about previous cars - there have been way too many and I stopped counting at 160!

Just the rear brake calipers/levers are looking a bit rusty so might replace them. I've got a bike carrier from Kevfromwales now so I can stick it on the roof of the car properly |

Just had to look quite hard for this thread! Anyhow, reason for bumping it is because a large package arrived in the post today. Saw it on Ebay and couldn't resist - A homebrew but very nicely done trailer bike made out of another shopper!   It'll need a bit of work to fit as it's been built to suit a normal sized bike.  Could also do with shorter cranks and probably modifying the seat tube to go lower so that the small person can fit. Gonna be fun trying to balance it all with a four year old on the back! School run could get interesting ;D |
