Thank you, John

Thanks folks; I carefully examined all, & the porkchop seems bent, putting a tremendous preload on the brake system; it may have been returned by a customer as a defective brake unit where they gave a customer an exchange way back in the day, & then threw the returned parts back into a box, &...

I bought an NOS forebrake in the (open) box from the fifties; for my '49 B6, & had it installed nicely on my S2 rim; everything is NOS but for some reason the brake shoes drag just hard enough that the bike is a misery to ride! (The adjustment is about as loose as it can get) The shoes have not...

Keith, please tell me what is meant by "high flange". Thanks, John

I have a complete NOS forebrake assembly on my '49 B6 but the shoes seem a bit too large for the drum & they "drag" fairly hard; I've only ridden the bike a few blocks & it's too hard to pedal. Could give you the lining thickness measurement but that could only lead to possibly more problems(?)

$40 OBO! Next destination is the Dumpster!!!!!!

NEW PRICE: $70 or best offer.

Thanks for such a 'helpful' & gracious comment! I have learned in my 65 years that nothing worthwhile is EVER "easily done". I will however, look into a price modification.

Zeph, I guess I don't understand what you have said; am I leaving something out of the description, or do the photos appear insufficient? Let me know & I'll correct it. Thanks, John

Here is an NOS pair of Torrington pedals, no markings on outer caps, but the inner caps say "Torrington", & "Made in USA". The blocks are 4 inches long, and the threaded ends are 1/2 inch diameter. These did not come to me with a package. Asking $150 shipped to CONUS. Paypal as friends. Thanks!

I'll send five bucks for all the effort, & my thanks. PM me with your Paypal & I'll send it tonite if one of us doesn't hit the hay first. John

Or, at your convenience, if not tonight.

I just got back onto the computer; I appreciate your patience with this stuff. Give me a price shipped to Missouri & I can Paypal tonight. John

Still hoping to hear from you...

Danny, I know it's a tiny request, but I need the 2 very large head screws that hold the rack & fender braces to the frame. I'll pay whatever you feel is fair. I cannot find this type of screw anywhere; I need both of them. Thanks!
