Hayden Coons is showing off his bike “Black Hawk” as part of the transportation class custom bicycle project. This is a kick-type scooter and is made from parts of four bicycles. He did all the work to design, fabricate, as well as paint and grease it. The bike has a 16x2.125-inch front wheel, two 7-inch wheels on the back, BMX handlebars with a custom grab bar attached, and a frame length of about 40 inches. His favorite part is the grab bar.
Great work!

Killian McGowan’s bike for the transportation class custom bicycle project was made from parts of two tricycles, and parts of other bicycles. He designed and fabricated it. The long tricycle-style bike has an 11-inch front wheel, two 6.5-inch wheels on the back, and a 61-inch frame. He also needed to use a piece of angle iron for the extra strength for the center of the frame. His favorite part is the curved seat and he calls his bike “The Pink Panther.”
Another outstanding bike!

Jeff Shelton’s bicycle for the transportation class custom bicycle project was made from parts of four bikes. He designed, fabricated, took it apart, painted and greased all areas. The bike features an 18-inch front fork, custom handlebars, a 45-inch chain, and an adjustable seat post. He welded the joints together and it has 16x2.00 tires. His favorite part is the custom handlebars. The bike is called Chop and the chopper-style bike is fun to ride. Jeff plans to hang the bike in his shop in the future.
Fantastic work!

Peter DeBrock is showing off his bicycle “Different,” which is part of the transportation class custom bicycle project. This was made using parts from four different bikes. Peter designed and fabricated it, then took it apart, painted it and greased all areas. The bike has a 24x1.95 front tire, a 16x1.75 back tire, BMX handlebars, an adjustable seat post, a back-rim frame fender, and a 35-inch chain. His favorite part is the front wheel, and the hardest part of the build was making the frame.
Excellent job!

Joe Bolster is showing off his bike as part of the transportation class custom bicycle project. The mountain bar handlebars are his favorite part of the design because of the style. The bike was built using parts from a few bicycles. Joe added a larger chain sprocket, and he extended the frame. He also used a front fork from a larger frame. The bike has 20-inch wheels and he calls it “Shadow Rider.”
Nice job!

Elijah Jones is the next creation in the transportation class custom bicycle project. This bike is called “Yucko,” named after a famous clown. Elijah said the bike fits him well and the paint job is his favorite part of the build. The bike was put together using parts from seven bikes! The wheel size is 12.5 x 1.75, and it has a chain length of 63 inches. The seat also has a quick adjustment in two places on the bike.
Awesome work!

The next bike in the transportation class project of creating custom bicycles comes from Logan Beardslee. His tricycle creation is called “Extend.”
He said the seat post addition is his favorite part of the design, because he was able to attach it to a more comfortable seat. The bike was built using parts from three bicycles. Because of the front pedals, it has forward and reverse, as well as a 12-inch solid wheel in the front, and two solid 7-inch wheels in the back.
Another nice piece of work!

We continue the transportation class project of building custom bicycles, with our first student piece. This is William Neske’s bike, which he calls Harley. The handlebars are his favorite part of the bike. This was made using parts from three bicycles. The bike has coaster brakes, an 18-inch wheel in the front and a 20-inch wheel in the back.
Great work!

Students in Sal Salvia’s transportation class are building custom bicycles this year. They are utilizing parts from used bicycles for their own custom builds.
During class, they are learning the parts of a bike, and how to take it apart and reassemble it into a new design. Tool-use safety, mig welding, metal work, and bicycle safety are also topics being covered. The assignment is to build a custom bike out of available bicycles.
Over the course of the next several weeks, we will be showcasing the students as they finish their bikes.
For the first, we are showing you Mr. Salvia’s “example” design. From then on out, we will be showcasing the students work.
Mr. Salvia’s was made of from parts of five bicycles. He designed and fabricated it, then student William Neske took it apart, painted it, and greased all areas. The bike has a 24-inch front form, BMX handlebars, a 59-inch chain, adjustable seat post with a rim frame support, 16x2 tires, and an extended kickstand, which is Mr. Salvia’s favorite part. He calls the bike “Rusty Gold.”
Keep watching our Facebook and website for more of these fantastic creations!
