    1953 Hercules Coronation model

    Yesterday, I received Paul's Hercules frame back from the restoration artist. She did an outstanding job. The Falcons' feathers are all showing and the gold scripted Hercules looks better than new! I am very happy with the results!

    1953 Hercules Coronation model

    Today, I was able to locate and purchase a NOS Hercules mid 50s Front fork to replace the damaged fork that came with my Hercules Tourist Bicycle. I will have to do a re-paint for it to blend in with the original paint scheme.

    1953 Hercules Coronation model

    I am happy to report, that I was able to find on e-bay and purchase this diamond in the rough, 1953 Herumatic B type 3 rear 3 speed hub. Everything within the hub is in good condition except for the bearings, which I will replace with new bearings and fresh new marine grease. I will be lacing...

    1953 Hercules Coronation model

    My completed work is going very slowly, as I am receiving chemotherapy treatments once a week to help me with the shrinkage of my metastiside tummers. In any event, today I was able to replace the left crank arm on my Hercules Windsor bicycle with an original Hercules crank arm, as the bike...

    1953 Hercules Coronation model

    I am happy to say, that I was able to purchase Paul's 1953 Hercules Tourist parts bicycle. Asside from the damaged front fork, the remainder of the bike appears to be in excellent condition. I have all the necessary parts to put the bike back to its' original condition. I will post photos of...

    1953 Hercules Coronation model

    Hi Paul, I am looking forward to acquiring the majority of the parts from your Hercules Tourist parts bike.
  8. usarnie1

    1953 Hercules Coronation model

    Yes, that is my old bike! I can tell because I used a hot melt glue gun to glue in the cane tips on the rear suporting kick stand! I also kept the wicker basket, tool pouch and the rear mounted book rack.

    On to my next bike!

    The tires on all three of my 1953 QEII Coronation Celebration Bikes are 26" x 1 3/8". I was very lucky to find a set of Michelin tires for my Hercules Windsor Bicycle.

    1953 Hercules Coronation model

    My 1952 Rolfe step thru was a nice collectable bike. However, I can not keep them all and I sold it to another collector.

    1953 Hercules Coronation model

    Coasterbrakejunkie1969 sent me some photos of his Hercules Tourist parts bicycle and even though it is in rough shape and incomplete, I was able to determine that it originally was a 1953 Hercules Tourist QEII Coronation Celebration bicycle.

    1953 Hercules Coronation model

    I am always looking for parts that look better than the parts on my three Hercules QEII bicycles. I will be anciously awaiting to see your photographs of the usuable parts that are on your bike. If your bike does not have the two falcons in flight or the scripted Hercules between the two...

    1953 Hercules Coronation model

    I consider myself an expert on the 1953 Hercules Queen Elizabeth II Coronation Celebration Bicycles, as I own three of them! The first bit of information that I will share with you is: Hercules made three different models of this bicycle. They are the Tourist, The Royal Prince and the Windsor...

    Dual Miller Headlights

    You are correct! With a half wave rectifier, you will get flicker while the bike is traveling less than 3 MPH. With the full wave bridge rectifier and filter capacitor, their is no flicker at all! That is why I chose to use the full wave bridge rectifier circuit.
  15. usarnie1

    Dual Miller Headlights

    I decided to add a full wave bridge rectifier to my headlight circuit. This will provide the headlights with DC voltage on both halves of the AC cycle. To accomplish this I needed to insulate the bicycles factory headlight bracket from the headlights. To facilitate this I used a section of 1...

    Dual Miller Headlights

    The vintage Miller generator's are 6 volt!

    Dual Miller Headlights

    You need to first determine what the output voltage and wattage of your generator is prior to ordering any LED bulbs.
  18. usarnie1

    Dual Miller Headlights

    Both of these LED purchases were made on e-bay. The seller is: 2015jessie0001 That is the best that I can do for you!
  19. usarnie1

    Dual Miller Headlights

    No, the length of the screw is actually between 7 to 8mm.
  20. usarnie1

    Dual Miller Headlights

    OK, your lights are not as deep as mine. Perhaps, mine are deeper to allow for the switch! However, the width is basically the same! Today, I ordered (from e-bay) the LED's that I previously posted on the CABE. Additionally, I ordered red 18 gauge hook up wire from e-bay, to hook-up all the...

    Dual Miller Headlights

    Rennfaron, The size of each of my Miller headlights are 3 3/4" Deep x 2 1/2" Wide.
  22. usarnie1

    Dual Miller Headlights

    Rennfaron, Yes, your dual headlights are the smaller size, as are mine! However, each of my headlights have two bulbs and a switch on its' top. I will be converting both of my headlights to operate on two 5 LED E10 bulbs, so they only only pull .16 amps each out of my 3.24 Watt Miller...

    Dual Miller Headlights

    Hi all, Today I completed a project that has been on hold for awhile. Previously I was able to purchase separately two identical small Miller headlights on e-bay. I used several spacers and an original European style headlight mount and hardware. I assembled the unit and mounted it on my...

    My Three Musketeers

    Attached to this post is a photo of my three 1953 Hercules QE2 bicycles. The one on the viewers far left is a near mint Hercules Windsor Bicycle. The bike in the middle is a Hercules Royal Prince and the bike on the far right is a Hercules Tourist.

    1953 Hercules Tourist Queen Elizebeth II Coronation Celebration Bicycle

    Prior to purchasing any 1953 Queen Elizabeth II Coronation Celebration Bicycle, Make sure the seats' down tube decal is present and not sun faded or missing any of its' parts. The value of the bike depends on the condition of this decal! Everything else on the bike can be replaced.
  26. usarnie1

    1953 Hercules Tourist Queen Elizebeth II Coronation Celebration Bicycle

    The Bad points are: 1) The 5 monarch chevron decals are missing from the seat down tube 2) All decals remaining on the bike are faded 3) Most of the chrome on the bike has rust damage 4) The original Flamboyant Ruby Red Paint has suffered sun damage 5) The original Hurcumatic shifter has been...

    1953 Hercules Tourist Queen Elizebeth II Coronation Celebration Bicycle

    When it rains it pours! Here is another 1953 Hercules QE2 bicycle located in Las Vegas for $150. It is owned by Saun McGuire. It needs a lot of work and shown below are the good points of this bicycle. Any Cabers live in Las Vegas?

    1953 Hercules Tourist Queen Elizebeth II Coronation Celebration Bicycle

    That is OK with me, as I recently purchased two complete handbrakes and calipers off of e-bay for $20 plus shipping. The Hercules B type 3 rear wheel is a killer to find! Unless you want to overpay and purchase it from England. Currently there is one for sale across the pond. Good Luck, Arnie
  29. usarnie1

    1953 Hercules Tourist Queen Elizebeth II Coronation Celebration Bicycle

    I will pay $5 per part or $20 for the 4 parts that I want plus shipping
  30. usarnie1

    1953 Hercules Tourist Queen Elizebeth II Coronation Celebration Bicycle

    Yes, you did OK paying $40 for the bike. If you are interested in parting it out, I am interested in purchasing both hand brake controls, the front brake caliper and the chrome top fork cover. Thanks, Arnie

    1953 Hercules Tourist Queen Elizebeth II Coronation Celebration Bicycle

    Attached to this thread is a 1953 Hercules Tourist QE2 bicycle that is in excellent condition, located in the Washington D.C. area for $222. If purchased, it would not take too long to get it looking fantastic!

    1953 Hercules Tourist Queen Elizebeth II Coronation Celebration Bicycle

    The Bike located in Semonole, Florida is in fact a 1953 Hercules Tourist Queen Elizabeth II Coronation Celebration Bicycle. You are correct about the bike being repainted! It is also missing all the special Coronation decals. Unfortunately, It has the wrong rear hub, the wrong goose neck...
  33. usarnie1

    1953 Hercules Tourist Queen Elizebeth II Coronation Celebration Bicycle

    You are correct! The 1953 Hercules bicycles are not that common. They were a one year limited edition to honor Queen Elizabeth II's Coronation Celebration. I have 3 of these bikes and I am always looking for more! The rare parts for the bike are the B type 3 rear hub, the 44" rear brake cable...

    1953 Hercules Tourist Queen Elizebeth II Coronation Celebration Bicycle

    I am looking for a 1953 Hercules B type 3 rear 3 speed hub. I like to keep things original as possible. Currently, my Hercules bicycle has a B type 2 rear hub on it. I am also interested in a clean set of front and rear hand brake controls with their calipers. Additionally, I am also...

    On to my next bike!

    The Hercules Windsor bicycle is the rarest of all four of the 1953 Hercules bicycles. The most common is the Hercules Tourist, then the Hercules Royal Prince and finally the Hercules Churchill De-Luxe. My Hercules Windsor Bicycle is near complete. I was able to replicate an exact duplicate...
  36. usarnie1

    Churchill Deluxe

    Your Bike is a Hercules and the model is Churchill De-Luxe. The year of the bike is post 1950, as prior to 1950 the front Dynohub had a bakelite outside plate and yours is steel! The date of your bike is stamped on the backside of the Dynohub or on the Sturmey Archer AW 3 speed hub. It will...

    On to my next bike!

    My Hercules Windsor Bicycle, that was found at a storage facility auction in Rhode Island, is now complete! Because of the bike being in storage for many years, it has very little sun fading to the flamboyant red paint. I still have not found a photo of a better quality Hercules Windsor chain...

    1953 Hercules Tourist Queen Elizebeth II Coronation Celebration Bicycle

    Currently, I have 3 of these 1953 Hercules bicycles. One I had shipped out from Michigan, one I found 6 miles from my house in California and the third I had shipped out from Rhode Island.

    1936 Raleigh lady's Bicycle

    Your Raleigh DL-1 really cleaned up nice! I think you made the right choice to replace the non-stock seat with a Brooks B66. You still need to reconnect the 3 speed shifter and cable!

    1936 Raleigh lady's Bicycle

    My 1936 Raleigh is now complete, with the exception of adding a warning bell. Check out my recently added spring loaded dual drop down rear kick stand!

    1936 Raleigh lady's Bicycle

    The rear hub is a Sturmey Archer K6 with a two section indicator chain, joined in the middle, that goes through both axel nuts. The 6 indicates that it is a 1936. It is in no way like a Sturmey Archer AW! Currently, I have replaced both tires, tubes, seat, hand grips, brake shoes and...

    1936 Raleigh lady's Bicycle

    My 1936 Raleigh Sports Model is now road worthy. It rides great! However, I still need to polish the paint
  45. usarnie1

    1936 Raleigh lady's Bicycle

    Hi All, I found this barn fresh bike locally. It appears to be a 1936 Raleigh that someone over the last 81 years has replaced the following items: quadrant shifter, hand grips and kick stand. Everything else on the bike appears to be original including a 3" Raleigh Bell and a Veeter...
