1986 Cunningham LPB

This 85 Cunningham LPB (Little Person's Bike) is the little sister to Kirby, the big 85 Cunningham I featured the other day. The two bikes couldn't be further apart. While Kirby was designed and built to take the punishment of a larger rider hitting the trails hard, the LPB is limited to a rider of approximately 130lbs and wasn't even heat treated.

I found out about Kirby and the LPB via Curtis at the Auburn Bike Company. Curtis was instrumental in helping me get the bikes. Curtis has a nice rotation collection of vintage bikes on display, definitely worth a visit if in you're in the area!!

As I am still learning about these bikes, I won't attempt to discuss the details and instead will just get on with the photos.
