    mine is a Raleigh tora 26

    I upgraded to wideass seat to reduce taint pain...and higher handle bars to reduce back pain

    i have one perfect working one and one almost perfect to use for parts if i ever need them...overall cost for both was $20 plus the seat...my favourite things on it is the rear suspension is great on my spine...and the clicker shifters are fun to use they have little triggers for upshifts and downshifts

    Growing up in Denver during the 90's, these bikes were very popular.

    I knew a guy from the neighborhood who dealt in parts for these beasts (apparently lots of lowrider bike parts fell off of trucks), so I started building and selling them for cash when I was like 10 years old. I liked to stay somewhat simple with them, but some people would go all out.

    Bikes like these would even have air suspension to raise the clearence when pedaling....

    Haha that's behind my work, those drums are full of waste water/old coolant. It kinda looks like they are leaking in the picture but they arent I assure you.

    That's what you meant by "toxic avenger" right? Lol
