StreetFox & Santehnick
You ever thought about turning a busted curb into a DIY bike rack that’s also a street art piece? I’ve sketched out a modular frame that can do both—no fuss, just pure practicality with a splash of color. Want to hear the details?
Sure, lay it on me. Just keep the frame sturdy and the paint dry, and we’ll have a rack that’s both useful and a bit of local flair.
Alright, first grab some scrap steel from a junkyard, cut two long rails about 4 inches thick, then bolt them together with heavy-duty steel plates at each end. Add a crossbar about 18 inches long in the middle for the bikes. Weld a short metal rail on each side of the crossbar for the wheel rests. Finish with a two-coat spray paint—black primer then a bright neon color, seal with clear coat. Quick, sturdy, and gives that city edge. Ready to hit the workshop?
Sounds solid. Just make sure you’ve got a good welding helmet, the right bolts, and a clean work area. Let’s hit the workshop and get those rails cut.Sounds solid.

Got it, crew. I’ll scope the workshop, grab the right bits and get the rails prepped. We’ll cut them tight, weld ‘em solid, and you’ll see the rack pop up faster than a subway train. Let’s roll.
Alright, just make sure the rails are clean and the weld spots are pre‑cleaned—no rust there, or the paint’s going to flake. Once that’s sorted, we’ll have a rack that holds up and looks good. Let’s get to it.
Got the plan—rails clean, edges pre‑treat, weld spots wiped. Once that’s done, the paint’ll stay put and the rack will look sharp.
