An old worksman trike and 50 feet of old tubing... why not? Built this in 2001.

Boynton bicycle railroad. Anybody who can explain to me how this thing is being moved by bicycles?

Swinger bike in progress

I am creating a swingbike (added steering axis welded in front of the seat) from two child bikes i had laying around. It works and it is a lot of fun. It is too easy to ride so i am planning to add an other folding/turning axsis. Unfortunately I can't yet finish it, it is so cold in my workshop, the paint freezes instead of drying...

Shim help for undersized handlebar

I am trying to mount a 11/16" cruiser bar to a 25mm 70s french stem . I've used a few coke can skin shims but it's still too loose. Is there a better solution? I considered trying hose clamp material in hopes that the slots would provide a little grip. I guess I'm not optimistic about coke can shims. Anyone tried such a thing before?
