For my roommate Cassady. She gets in to PDX tomorrow and her bike will be shipped to her sometime next week, so she just needs a bike for a few days. Anything frm 55-57cm works, really.
Doug, what size is the pdxfixed loaner? I have a feeling it's too big...
It's just so she can get around town, so anything will work. Thanks!
maybe my pista? nevermind i wont be there.
i got this mongoose from toys r us.
that should work... and hey it may become trendy and cool and new!!!!!
bryan.:i got this mongoose from toys r us.

We'd take anything, seriously, haha.
yung jeezy pdx:maybe my pista? nevermind i wont be there.
Don't tease me, that'd be so perfecttttt. Come home.
the pdx loaner is actually about that size. talk to doug about it.
jonah:the pdx loaner is actually about that size. talk to doug about it.
Really? Wordddd.
it's a 57 i think. has a really short top tube. if she can stand over it, she'll be fine.
needs a brake.
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!
yep. also needs some bar tape.
I'd like to institute a "better than you found it" rule , ya know air in the tires, no flats, chain wiped and lubed..etc... something little.
or meaning maybe toss on some bartape. or a brake. then it's in better shape for the next time.
whatcha think?
... and dice on the valve stems! :)
Good plan, Doug.
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.
how about just wipe the dust offa it
hey hey douggy I think that's a rad idea. I'll let you know when she needs it.
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.
That would RULE!
I think she's coming in tomorrow, so I'll try to get a hold of you guys and work with the Jeez to make it happen.
Thanks mucho!
yee. im still waitin on my 50 bucks for that pista
gimme
oh yeah, sorry littledude totally forgot. come over sometime and get your scrills and that fork.
So, it's looking like it might be postponed till next week. I'll get in touch with you guys and see what's good.
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.
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.
i may has.
woah, nvrm for 15 days. didnt read that part.
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.

That would be perfect Amy. Hopefully it will work out.
nevermind.
just use my stupid peugeot.
flat rental rate: 6 pack of hamms + 1 snickers
normal snikcers or snikcers with almonds? cuz i prefer almonds
oh geez, i spelled snickers wrong twice.
almonds are pretty good, but i prefer to be open with customers at alexs big ass bike and skateboard rental.
most people charge you 5 10 15 dollas to rent a bike, but for you.. for YOU? 6 pack of hamms and a snickers. this is a 29er.. DO YOU KNOW HOW BIG A 29er IS
Amy: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.
they decided to rent a bike instead, cuz htey wanted it today. thanks though..
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.
mkeeezy: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.
you have three friends who are only 5' ?
thats an average of 1.667 feet per person
I need a loaner
,Please.
you get what im saying.
you hang out with movie stars. thats cool. i'd like to meet willow, mini me, and smiegel some time.
no but seriously.. are they all 12 or what? where would you find 3 size 45cm bikes to borrow?
edited mean comment
Amy:no but seriously.. are they all 12 or what? where would you find 3 size 45cm bikes to borrow?
...they're just short. haha. and thats why i said it was a long shot, i didn't think people would be able to.
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!
