Ouch! What happened?
Why does the fork have to come off as well?
Interesting bikes that showed up at bike shops while they operated with closed/locked doors!

Next one that comes in, I'm quitting and getting a job at McDonald's.
Don't do that...come see me...I'm "less corporate" than I was at Efingers...
Next up...1997 GT STS Thermoplastic custom...Retail was around $3,000-$3,500 for this thing...Rock Shox/Specialized Judy FX w/Carbon lowers, XT/XTR build, Early Shimano DX Pedals, Chris KIng/Club Roost cockpit area w/GO FAST crossbar...Rock Shox rear shock...it has seen lots of action!

not a mtb, but thread got me thinking about a bike I have talked about often, my first "real" bike as a kid. This was it, took some searching, even found a similar one for sale on ebay for $299 used to regularly put 30 miles in on this thing on the weekends. wonder I could have kids after that saddle....

I totally remember this.
I had the same Ike and I remember really liking it. I unfortunately broke it and then another.

I would assume the one at Pop's is now the last one on earth. Once someone sits on it, it will disintegrate.

Sticker in the lower left - it wasn't fake, just modified to my college roommate's last name (he spun the metal for our freestyle shows).

Perfect timing for this sweet RestoMod project.
Cut apart the stock Campy wheel and relaced it to a White ENO.
Carbon fork, threadless conversion, modern Zipp Cockpit, Sram SS levers. Spot ring and guide donated from my personal collection.
Tried to keep it as close to stock looking.

Ahh, Pete’s Bike shop track, good memories. I raced there probably every other weekend from late 70’s to mid 80’s during the season. Still often drive past the spot where the track was and it always brings me back!
This one is pretty neat. Could be for sale if anyone is stoked on it.
