Brand New 1980 BMX Oreo Cookie Bike, Collectable one of a kind priced on line for $10,000.00 I'm quick selling for $2000.00. Call Angie at 612-242-4312. This bike is a collector's .


I now officially hate humanity. Every last fucking one of you.

This bitch is crazy. She brought it in to our shop to have it built for her grandson. We told her it might be collectible, and she should keep it nice, and buy him a different cheap bike. Once we built it, I called her to tell her it was done being built. She told me "It's worth $10,000". I laughed, and said "oh yeah?". when she arrived to pick it up, she claimed we switched the bike out for a crappy one and that we were trying to rip her off. As if we could reproduce a shitty 80's BMX bike in a couple hours. We were pissed, she was pissed, and we ended up just building it for free and also had to give her a new tire since the rock hard original tires blew out when we aired them up (our fault since the tires were "new"). Stupid bitch.

The guy with the bike above used to have it priced at $10,000. We called him, and he said he never expected to sell it for that, he just set the price high in case a collector REALLY wanted it.

I emailed her a while back and said she will be lucky to get $100 since it was missing parts.

It's not a lovely bicycle, but I'd still ride that rather than walk six miles. I might change my schedule to only go out after dark, but I'd still ride it.

I'm not sure that's the bike I'd recommend for someone who sounds like she's a non-rider, and I'm not talking strictly about the aesthetics.

i think that felt looks fine. except for the ugly saddle.

seems like a good bike to me for someone just getting into riding. flat bars. only 3 speeds to worry about without front or rear derailleurs to worry about.

i guess the angles could be a little more relaxed. but its not too nutso.

I was going to use this on my garden but I moved and no longer have a garden (or a place to store this material). Please make your plants happy and come take it. Located in Highland Park neighborhood of St. Paul.
