Finally, after a whole year searching, I find the perfect site! I live in London, England, where there is not much interest in unusual or custom bicycles. I think this is because the Custom Car Scene is pretty small, which (correct me if I'm wrong) kick-started Custom Culture (Motorcycles, Airplanes etc) over there in the states, esp. SoCal. I first became interested 2 years ago when I visited San Diego and picked up a Lowrider Magazine. When I saw those bikes, I had to have one. I didn't want a kid's-size frame, eventually I found a (VERY rare, in England) Stretched Dyno Coaster. It is a few years old, but mint, the guy who imported it from the US never used it. I bought a few after market parts for it on a later trip to San Diego, but prefer to ride it without the bent lowrider forks, those are a bit dangerous in heavy London traffic! My everyday bike is a KHS (retro cantilever) with a custom 7-speed nexus hub and triple-clamp suspension forks. I hope to paint it to match the Dyno's Fire-Engine Red scheme later this year. If you like I'll send some pictures, sorry I have none with me right now. I think your site would benefit from a visitors book, you will get good feedback from people too lazy to Email, and they are interesting to read as well for others. This would normally include me, but I wanted to congratulate you on an excellent site. |
