Schwinn Probe *MOTORIZED* Mountain Bike
well, the Probe wasn't selling no matter how good a bike it was so, in went the 80cc motor kit. it worked well and took less then 2 days or gathering parts as it is the 9th one i have built up.

Univega 10 speed
Scott Commuter hybrid
This bike was yet an other garage sale find. It was sold to me with MTB tires, messed up grips, and no seat post. I got it nice new hybrid tires, new grips, and i found an old seat post that fit in my shop also i gave it a general tune up. I like this sale because I turned it around within one week and sold it.
Motorized Bikes
It all started summer of junior year in high school, i had just got a job (hell hole... Sears... lasted 5 months) and I was looking for something to wast my new found money on, i saw this kit on the internet for converting a bicycle into an 80cc motorized bike! i got it and found a bike to put it in. the thing was a fucking blast and i road that first one for 9 months before one day i saw an add selling one just like it on craigslist. So, i started selling them. the going rate is around $400 (at least how i do it) and i have made 8 of them so far, this is the most resent one i sold a week ago.
My fixie
This is really the bike that got me started on customization and I love her.. Its a Motobeacane Nomade Frame 58cm (way to big for me), some off brand cranks, Alexrim rear wheel, spinergy front carbon wheel, brooks saddle, sram BMX chain, some GT dirt jump paddles, and shimano nexus duel-pivot long reach front brake (cus this frame is ment to have 27" but its got 700c). most of the parts are from ebay
My commuter
This is one i picked up at a garage sale with another road bike. Its a Motobecane Nomade with some scratched up green paint that i really like the look of. After buying it i restored it 100% with new cables/housing, new tires, trued/re-dished wheels (naval jelly and steel wool)and fresh bar tape.
2011 update- On loan to a friend living in San Francisco, after 6 months there it's still running well, put a new rear brake on to match the front.
