Pierce improved cushion 1904 or later

I always like to Mock up my bikes when I first get them.... so here you go Ignore the wheel set - just there to give me an idea of what it will look like. in the process of building carbon insert Ghisallo Rims - just need to decide on what hubs to get for both rear and front. Also need a pair of period rat traps - though these pedals will do for a little while. Saddle will be a troxel or sager ... not a long spring but again will have to find that here on the cabe. The kelly's are a perfect fit and will be staying with the bike -right now I have just put a rubber washer in the fork gap - since I cannot fine a cone to fit the top of the headset. I think it will be nice - and it looks like it might be ridable once I have finished. Thanks Carlito's...!!! Will post better pics.

Pierce head set

is this what you need ?smaller is just race larger is threaded ...Tom

Those are Not It!

What he Needs is a Shallow Bearing Cup that Fits Completely Under the Screw-In Top Piece that Looks Like a Dome!!!!
The one From My SNELL Screws In and is Barely 1/4" Thick, and Holds the Loose Bearings Only! The Diameter Was Too Small though, I Tried It!!!

I'll Try to Post a Pic Tomorrow! This Won't Let Me Post It!!!

Thank you very very much for taking the time to do this!!!! .....I think it might work......I'll try it and see....let me know what you want for it.

Carlitos - I just put the long spring on to see what it looked like and I agree it takes away the clean lines of the bike - I just want a simple two or three coil spring Troxel or Sager. I sold one to Bri.....that would have been perfect - never fails. There was a nice Sager in the for sale section that went in seconds - so I will just have to bid my time.

I have other pieces , I am just not sure what to look for .Is it threaded? or is the small race I have pictured what you need? does it fit inside the frame itself? I will take more pictures of what I have...Tom

Pierce part

Pierce race, this is the only other part I have for Pierce besides bearings. This part fits inside the head tube , could this be the part you need ?
