Pipe Bomb
Here's a nifty little funnybike I saw in Wicker Park. Note the This Bike Is A Pipe Bomb sticker.

Unicyclin' Bear
Okay, the unicycle itself is not really modified, but if you're going to ride around on a unicycle dressed like a bear, you're freaky enough for this site in my book.

A Work In Progress
The creator of this bike said it was named "A Work In Progress". He said he just sorta adds things onto it all the time. If you look closely, you can see the big skull up front, the devil duck, and the rear punkin. It's covered in little creepy-crawlies, and the overall impression is of a zombie bike.

The Chopper
This bike is a familiar sight around Chicago. Isaiah calls it "The Chopper". No trailer queen here, this guy rides his chopper everywhere.
The most striking thing about this bike is that it is covered in lights. You can sorta see the running lights beside the front and rear axles, and the battery in the middle that powers them all. There's a siren, too- which is illegal in Chicago. Fight the power!
This bike is all bolted, no welding. The four pipes are filled with cement to counterbalance the poppa-choppa effect.
Note- this bike was destroyed in late 2003 by a car, but Isaiah built another as soon as he got out of the hospital.
