Still looking for a front brake

I'm looking for a Atom front brake. 36H and 80 gauge. If you have a licence built set from another manufacturer, I'm interested as well. Or if you have a nice set of Union brakes and want to sell would be even better, but never seen them for sale. Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G965F met Tapatalk

Thanks but I'm looking for the exact same looks as the Atom. So Atom or licensed replica like Grimecca Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G975F met Tapatalk

I can't find them on the site, for you have a link? Thanks Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G975F met Tapatalk

I found 2 Atom rear brakes (1 40H is for sale) Still looking for a front 36H 80 gauge. Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G975F met Tapatalk

Indeed hard to find, I was looking for an Ashtabula, that is even more rare, and after a year I gave up and found this Schwinn.

Thanks for the tip!

Not much atm... I can't get these brakes alligned good enough yet. I'm searching for some drums after all, I like the idea of canti's but I do want to ride it like its meant to be and that's not working with the canti's at this moment.

Finished mine yesterday. :cool: Started as: Finished: There are lots of pics in my build thread.

Finished the build yesterday, finnaly after 6 years!

Thanks! This Cyclone was also sold with a long case and that should be long enough for these gears. So I'm looking for one on Ebay right now. Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G965F met Tapatalk

Some progress, cleaned the brakes, first 24 hours in vinegar and then some scotchbrite. Before After Temporarily mounted to test clearance Cleaned the axle Cups pressed in Crank mounted Seat post and clamp mounted Fitted the wheel to test brake alignment Repro tire...

That goes without saying :-) Could you find out what the cheapest carrier is? Thanks Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G965F met Tapatalk

Would you consider shipping to Holland? Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G965F met Tapatalk

I don't know, what's the difference? I forgot to mention I prefer the 36H version Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G965F met Tapatalk

Very cool pics with mr Breeze himself! Your build looks a lot like mine, I'm finally building my 41 DX, see topic: https://thecabe.com/forum/threads/klunker-build.82439/post-1083131 What tires are you riding?

Time for paint First Creme paint: Stencils: And finished: The white could have been a little more creme, and there are some little scratches from removing teh stencils, but overall I'm pretty happy with the result.

So, almost 6 years after buying the frame and most of the parts I'm finally going to build it. :-) These are the parts I'm building it with, had a few changes over the years.

Great, thanks for the info!

Good point, I'm building a clunker with parts from around 78. So with period correct I mean what was available around that year. Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G965F met Tapatalk

What's the name of the model of the Carlisle and Schwinn? I got one NOS 26" blackwall Uniroyal and been looking for another one for ages. A similar one from the same period would help a lot. Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G965F met Tapatalk

Great klunkers! I really need to get mine build... Verzonden vanaf mijn iPad met Tapatalk

I got a Muddyfox from '84 and really like the ride of these oldies. I might put some of these tyres on, they look super cool! Verzonden vanaf mijn iPad met Tapatalk

Thanks, the project is still waiting till we are moving next month. Then I got a shed of 200 ft2 so enough room to build a painting booth and get started with the frame. Can't wait to finish this one after 2,5 years! Verzonden vanaf mijn iPad met Tapatalk

Great clunker you got! I love those blue rims. I'm still thinking what paint scheme to go for. I really like the idea of candy red with cream, but when I see yours, black seems very cool to. Verzonden vanaf mijn iPad met Tapatalk

For me this build is all about making a period correct replica of a type of bike that changed the world of biking big time. These pioneers tried a lot of different parts back then and choose whatever part was the best at that moment and using Schwinn canti's was done by some racers before the...

I'm using what they used back in the day; a pressfit BMX BB with square axle. I got one from '78.

Hi, what do you want to be explained?

Hi thanks for the link! Lot of great stuff there, I got me some reading to do :-)

Great thanks a lot! Verstuurd vanaf mijn LG-D855 met Tapatalk

I'm afraid it might be to short as well, but couldn't find a longer one. I'll have to try when it is finished. Verstuurd vanaf mijn LG-D855 met Tapatalk

The serial nr is H59161 Verstuurd vanaf mijn LG-D855 met Tapatalk

I had that in mind for this build, everything was tried back then. For parts choice I used Alan's site and combined a few builds to my taste. This will be a approx. '78 build when the first alloy rims came availlable.

BTW the set of canti's are both for the front, so I'll have to check if I can use them on the rear. The rear ones are pretty rare, never seen one for sale before.

Thanks for the replies all, I made up my mind. I want the frame to be as original as possible, so decided not to braze on the bosses I already bought a while back. A member here has a set of canti's for sale, so going for that. Just the mounts and the brakes, and will use the motorbike...

I sent you a PM Verstuurd vanaf mijn LG-D855 met Tapatalk

Would you consider sellimg the mounts only? These are for the forks? Verzonden vanaf mijn iPad met Tapatalk

I'm looking for Schwinn cantilever mounts, front and rear for a prewar frame with blade forks.

And this is a project I'm still searching parts for. First year Cannondale SM500 with 24" rear wheel. [/url] How it should/will look:

Here is my '84 Muddy Fox Seeker, made by Araya, all original except for the tires. Great bike to ride, second pic is on one of the Dutch retro rides.

Here are some pics of the build. How I got the frame After sand blasting and spray plaster Some of the parts ]http://ep1.pinkbike.org/p4pb10398313/p4pb10398313.jpg[/img]

Hello everybody, I just joined the forum and introduced myself in the introducing topic. My name is Jeroen, 40 y.o. from Holland, and have been mountainbiking since 1990. Since 2005 I got the bug for vintage bikes when I bought the bike I was drooling over when I was 15 (and had to buy a low...
