maybe my pista? nevermind i wont be there.

bryan.:

i got this mongoose from toys r us.

that should work... and hey it may become trendy and cool and new!!!!!

We'd take anything, seriously, haha.

the pdx loaner is actually about that size. talk to doug about it.

it's a 57 i think. has a really short top tube. if she can stand over it, she'll be fine.

Word, I have a brake she can throw on it. That'd be totally perfect. I can grab it when I come over tomorrow morning to build my bike?

Thanks dude!

... and dice on the valve stems! :)

Use of free bike for some bar tape?
How much does it cost to actually rent a bike? I bet over $30. So for several days at the price of maintaining it and bar tape is generous.

hey hey douggy I think that's a rad idea. I'll let you know when she needs it.

Teen Idol:

Hey all,

I have a friend coming into town either this weekend, or next weekend, and she will be in need of a loaner bike for a few days. If anyone has something around 50-55, and can part with it for a few days, I'll buy you a taco.

Thanks in advance!

We can switch the parts from the GTB to jeezy's old pista.. should be small enough.. we did that for the last guy who borrowed the loaner bike.

yee. im still waitin on my 50 bucks for that pista

oh yeah, sorry littledude totally forgot. come over sometime and get your scrills and that fork.

received an email from a fellow tarckbike member. can anyone help?
"I could ride anywhere from a 54 to a 62, i'll be in town dec 8th-11th"
please dudes. thanks a ton.

i may has.

I have an extra bike Im workin on. It's a 57, but it has no brakes. This would be fine, but it's also SS. So it needs either a cog (if anyone wants to ride brakeless) or a brake. I might have it done by the time u needs kelly. If anyone else needs let me know...

PS It is a HUGE piece of shit. But it works.

Hey guys, on the 5th of January my girlfriend will be in town. She rides a 57, but a 55 would be her ideal size. Might I be able to borrow a bike from the 53-57 range?

It would be for approximately 15 days.

we might be able to fix something up.... by then grimm will be done borrowing the GTB, which is a 56..

That would be perfect Amy. Hopefully it will work out.

just use my stupid peugeot.

normal snikcers or snikcers with almonds? cuz i prefer almonds

almonds are pretty good, but i prefer to be open with customers at alexs big ass bike and skateboard rental.

BRINGING BACK OLD THREADSSS

friend needs a bike to ride, around 60cm, geared or no geared doesn't matter! plz let us know ASAP.. whispers or call doug preferably cuz ill be at work. we will compensate you in beers or something else desirable.

I have a 59cm pista that ya'll can borrow. It will need some parts though. ( Cranks / BB ) and the fork's a little bowed out, but dougie can probably fix that too. Oh, and 1'' headset spacers.

this is a long shot, but i have 3 friends from vegas who aint got a place or car. thing is, they're all about 5' and was hoping to try and get them each a loaner bike for the time being.

thats an average of 1.667 feet per person

you get what im saying.

edited mean comment

So now I too have an old friend who just got into town. He's here for a couple weeks. He's 5'7". Anyone have a loaner for all or part of the next couple weeks? He doesn't want a fixed gear. Just like a townie type rig. I can give some collateral too if you don't know me or whatever.

Anything would be rad. Thanks!
