That's what happened on my second rebuild. The first one broke the lower window hole.

Yes, low pin in lower window, upper pin in upper window.

Yes, I did remove one, but I don't recall which one it was. Then I saw in the instructions "only if needed" and put it back on. You may be on to something with this. I'll compare to the other hub that I borrowed the second coupler from.

Thanks, I check these items out when the new coupler arrives.

Yes, I believed so. The lower window went to the lower retarder tab, as per the instructions in the Sutherland manual.

I've successfully rebuilt these hubs in the past, but I'm obviously not doing something right this time. Originally, the recently purchased hub was sluggish to spin and would not shift at all. When I opened it up I found it filled with a very thick, sticky grease. I disassembled and cleaned...

I'm currently in the process of restoring a 20" Boys Monark Rocket. It has an alloy serial number plate attached to the bottom of the bottom bracket shell. The stamping is very faint. To the best of my ability the numbers are as follows: Model number: 180 9A15 Serial number: A09202 77

I would like that info as well. Thanks in advance. [email protected].

I recently completed a restoration for a customer of a 1939 Schwinn Cycle Truck. Believe it or not, he didn't know what he had found when he bought it. He just thought it looked pretty cool. Bought it at a farm sale for $35.00. Oh to be so lucky! The front fender is not authentic, but it's...

What is all of this about?

I've acquired the remnants of a Schwinn Black Phantom, serial number C56610. It's got a mix of parts, some original(?), some reproduction, and some that had nothing to do with a Phantom. It came with skip tooth cranks and a skip tooth New Departure hub, laced to a double knurled S2 rim. The...

I've made a video to show how to disassemble and reassemble a Columbia 5 Star locking fork. Feedback would be welcome

As for the steering, the fiancé and I took it for a little test ride through the neighborhood. It's definitely a "marriage counselor". It takes a lot of communication and cooperation, especially on the turns. She's used to being on the back of the tandem without a care in the world. This was...

The Colson pork chop/turkey wings just didn't look all that great to me, rather bland in my opinion. Finding a decent set would have been difficult, didn't see them come available very often. The things are also rather pricy. Then there would also be the condition issues. I could get the...

Acme Brass Custom Plating in Kansas City, MO. I have a friend that works there, but it didn't get me any discount. ;0) I already had the rims and hubs in chrome for a different project. When I found out how much they were going to cost I elected to use them as is. The nickel plating for...

Link to first test ride, low quality video, about a minute long.

Hard to say exactly. I'd had it for several years as one of those "someday projects" When I became engaged to be married the fiancé really wanted it as a prop for the wedding. I brought it to the house in late March/early April and started just sourcing parts for the modifications and such...
