Another piece of Junk


While there are no shortages of these bikes, I seem to be running into real crap. Here is a Magna, totally stripped although the crank and pedals are still on it. These types of bikes seem to be part of a disposable bike idea. Even if it were new, it would still be crap, now a zombie, its even crappier. This bike was found in Brooklyn on 13 Ave and 44 st.

Photo Reminder

If you really want to see the bikes, please remember to enlarge the photos and click on them to view the real details.

Lock worth more than bike


It amazes me. This bike a "Murray". Most bikes I see are real junk and this one is no exception but, the lock is an ABUS, a super motorcycle lock and real expensive, more than the bike is worth for sure. I love the pink fork and handle bars. Also notice the rad '80's paint scheme. Its the lock that will protect the bike, Im sure even if there was no lock, nobody would waste their time to steal it. Found on Ocean Parkway and Beverly road in Brooklyn

Zombie Graveyard


Although the bikes are crappy (most that become zombies are) they have started to congregate on lightposts. So ugly, so many. This collection was foind on 16 Ave. and New Utrecht Ave. in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn.

3 Speed? No Speed!


Saw this bike on Atlantic Ave. and Smith St. on Brooklyn. The frame says 3 speed, no brand. Pretty stripped down, only 1 tire, nice neck lock and no rust. Not too bad, can be salvaged.
