This is an unknown Raleigh cruiser that I have added to since I literally dug it out of the dirt of my backyard in 2010. Her name is “The Pickle Bike”. It’s my everyday workhorse with a few personal touches. One day I came out to find a penny in my spokes, I was told it’s a sign of respect from the BMX community. Anyone know anything about that?

That penny (?) on the spoke *chefs kiss. Any ideas to its origin?

There are dozens of us!
Is that stem really still below minimum insertion?! Most BMX style like that are super short.
With a cruiser, you can never go wrong.
I love it. But I wouldn’t chain the seat to the tube on the rack. I would put it around the top tube on front of the seat. Less easy to cut off.
That rack is easy to cut.
Love it tho. Sweet.
Imma have to start carrying pennies.
Sick ride!
That’s a really goofy looking bike and I love it.
the penny
Love the green pedals and chain protector!
