Riding a '38 Autocycle Deluxe
Thought this was really cool, was running a regular kickstand on this early 50's Columbia but found the correct one made specifically for this strange style frame with a hollow bottom stay, stand has special groves and a spacer in between, fits perfect, also put a bigger cog on the Sachs 2 spd. and now much more rideable!

new pedals on the Gazelle, yeah its a new bike but I just couldn't stand the plastic bodied stuff they supply on bikes these days, even if they were decent quality.
So on go a nice new set of MKS pedal with half clips. I ran these things on my 10 speeds back in the 70s & 80s and you just can't beat the quality.

Trued up the front wheel for the Super Sport
After getting it laterally and radially trued made sure spoke tension was at least 20% variant. Only 4 spokes found to be out of range. Three on the right and one on the left....Corrected.
The rear wheel was dismantled ready for a cleansing, polishing and rebuild.
Found three spokes extruding from the nipple. Not good.
306mm DS /308mm NDS. Spokes to be put on order.
