I like new. I use Goodyear heavy duty tubes from Walmart believe it or not they hold the pressure with good performance. I notice I never had to inflate more air in a rim since. Using them. Has anyone else use these tubes? Most of mine are size 26" X 125
picked this 1952 straightbar project off a fellow caber. The serial number on the left rear dropout F 58362 dates it NOV 1952 it has a faded red headbadge & looks to be ram horn stencils on the frame bars guessing possibly a Hornet. Here's a few pics of it before starting breaking it down.
Mike, is there a story on why this was stored for so long?
You did a great job assembling it & polishing it. Now it needs a little kids smiling & enjoying riding it
:D
Bill,,, what it really boils down to is "what the buyer is wanting to pay for it" Some bikes are a real reminder of ones childhood bike they might of had years & years ago ,,, The buyer has a real need to have it & sometimes pay too much for it but hey they are happy as Hell to have it back...
I just recieved mine. Boy they look awesome no matter what good or bad remarks about them,,, the cost compared to bicyclebones is more in my favor. Not bashing Dan & his cost, c I bought ton of stuff from him & was happy to recieved them. But when a good deal comes along you gotta jump on it...
