I have a copy of the Atomic Zombie book, so one of these days I will probably make a mutant bike out of some of the bikes I find in the trash (my son likes the idea of making a chopper). If I remember correctly, the author welds everything with a cheap stick welder. Aside from that, you just need an angle grinder, a hack saw, and a few basic hand tools.

i concur.

see also chunk 666. look under fleet. para chunkular constructions have some interesting ones. on that page, look for “How to make a Bicycle into a Record Player in 12,768 Easy Steps.” i want that.

also, there’s a great book called “bicycle builder’s bonanza” by that actually gives recipes for disaster. the red shoe of death, sky walker, and ladder under the photo gallery are incredibly impressive.

I agree. I love Franken-bikes. There is a great blend of art and beast in these machines.
