Georgioius! How is the ride compared to the old 599s? I just got my Roadmaster put back togetther with some really nice 599s, but I haven't had it out of the basement yet. The anticipation is killing me.

Ok, PMed Kevin. BTW, what goes wrong with the springs? Mine looks good, I think.

Hi guys, sorry, been at work all day. yes, I just need an axle. Mine's bent. It's a red band. Thanks for all the info. I'm learning stuff! I'll PM those of you with parts available but I have to go make dinner for the kids right now and then maybe consume a frosty beverage. Loong day!

Also any advice on them, are they all the same or do I need to get the right kind? Thanks.

Yeah, mine's a really nice riding bike.

Still a few things left.

Exasperatingly close but that one is metric. @#@%$#.

All of the things are $40 each shipped unless you want to haggle. Schwinn repro with incorrect light and maybe incorrect bracket; Williams 46/49. Drive side only (I'd be interested in acquiring a correct right side); Quaint old folding rack/seat, make offer; Front rack; Sakae SX...

I love this genre of bikes. Vastly underappreciated. I've got a 42 Roadmaster that's among my favorite bikes.

The price is good at 12 pounds (a little less than a buck fifty to the pound these days) and now they're on sale at 8 pounds each! http://www.spacycles.co.uk/products.php?plid=m2b6s122p1621 I'm getting a pair or two. I've contacted them about shipping but that was just five minutes ago, I'll...

I've got a couple of these. I rebuild them every now and then just to try something different and they're always a blast. I just put a coaster brake on my green one (a 1970 with the more common lugs, not the Capellas that you've got. I forget what they're called). I haven't finished it off...

These guys love a good British mystery, post it here; http://www.bikeforums.net/classic-vintage/

Sweet riding bikes. I've got two.

Yeah, you can get a 27" or a 700 onto a Sport frame. Raleigh sold that frame with several varieties of wheels and components and names. The brakes aren't original for a Sport. Those would have been steel sidepulls. Those are some sweet wheels and that looks like a fun bike. Don't worry too...

It's 8". Thanks!

Looking for a black fork for a lady's English 3 speed. Or if you want this frame and parts, let me know. Thanks.

Do I see a Raleigh Super Course?

No. I've got the Robin Hood kind but it's got two points and I think the slope is different. Sorry. Ben

Well, straightening the blades isn't a problem, I have a jig for doing that. The steerer tube is kind of corkscrewed. The headset bearings won't seat right. There's a good thread here about just welding on a new steerer but I don't have the time. Time to move on. I'll PM you about that...

Make an offer:)

Make an offer?

Your mom needs these!

Weekend bump?

I've had good luck just using adjusters from standard brake calipers on these. If you need a bigger diameter, get the ones from the cheap plastic brake levers on modern mountain bikes.

The springer is back up for sale and I've lowered the price on the rack.

This guy has an appropriate seat; http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/index.php?threads/basement-partsplosion-now-with-50-more-cranks.82432/

The steerer tube is bent beyond my ability to heal, but the rest of the bike is ok. I've even bought new tires for it. A matching tealish green 24" fork would make my day. I might just get a generic chrome one, don't want it too shiny, though. I'm into this thing for about a hundred bucks...

I need exactly that fork in green for a 24" bike.

I think the is repro stuff, the guy who sold it to me said that's what he thought but he wasn't sure. It was like NOS when it came to me but I couldn't resist putting it on my bike and riding it around for a couple of years. So it's got some nicks and scratches but it's still quite...

Yeah. You can't turn your back on the Cabe for a minute.

Um, might have just spent my allowance on another deal. If they're still around after I figure out something really nice and inexpensive to do for my wife, I'll be in touch. Otherwise, I'd better let the next guy have them.

Did you say $50 shipped? PMed

Heavyweight if you're stubborn; Hey Straightbar, your inbox is full. I want these but then I'd have to build another bike to put them on.

Sure. Couldn't get a PM through, though. Is your box full or is my computer just being weird?

Bars? What kind of bars?

I have one. If that rear hub is a flip flop, I'd trade it. I've got a couple of SA single speed coasters, too. I wonder if either of them are 40 hole.

One of my favorite colors, too.

Here's the Robin Hood. I've got a few other parts to go with it, but not a whole bike;

Westerly, Rhode Island, 02891. Thanks for asking. Still having Photobucket issues. Sorry. I'll get the other bike pictured as soon as I can figure this out.

The Panasonic looks to be in pretty good condition but the rear wheel is toast and the front one I need for another bike, so they aren't included. Free local pickup, $25+shipping if you make me box it up and all that. This is a '61 Robin Hood. The fork is toast and if you've got one to sell...

Feel free to make an offer.

My modern alter ego has some things to sell, too. Bear with me. I built this sweet 18 speed half step set up using a 13-36 9 speed cassette and a 46-49 Williams crank. Read more here; http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php/725295-18-speed-half-step-gearing-on-a-531-Falcon!?highlight= It...

I'm not sure if they'd even fit unless you got some 26x1"tires. If you're determined to stay single speed, probably the best fit would be to get the wheels from a Schwinn 10 speed and just put a single speed freewheel on it. You might want to adjust the spokes so it sits in the center like it...

I think I've got some Columbia 26x1 3/8 10 speed wheels. That's 7mm smaller diameter than Schwinn 26x1 3/8 wheels and you'd need to redish them to get the single speed freewheel to line up right. Show us a picture. I love those bikes.

And I've got this pile that I don't need. All steel, 26s and 27s. Prolly not worth the cost of shipping but here if you need something. $5 each;

Been saving these for a rainy day and I guess it's rainy. If there's a pair of hubs you really want without the rims, I'm willing to make a deal. All prices are +shipping. First up is this pair of Phil Wood 5 speed 27s. I've got some freewheels to fit, we can talk about that. I trued them...

That's a nice piece of work. Why are you letting it go?

Sold. Thanks.

$125? With new tires?

Ok, sold the chrome truss rod thingy, and the gothic fenders seem to be for a middleweight.
