Loving it Roy. Been working on mine today.

Is the mounting plate for the rear roller cam just bolted through the seatstay bridge?

I had those pedals on my BMX, still got the scars to prove it! Looking retro cool.

That's pretty cool! How do you like the Rollercam brake? I find mine is rather on/off, not much modulation?

That is a very cool bike.

I think these originally had a cantilever front and a calliper rear brake. I'd say that yours has a home made rear roller cam adaptor on it, made by someone who knew what they were doing and who wanted a rear brake that was as good as the rest of the bike.

hi
what do you think the odds of picking up another one of these over a couple weeks would be?
slim to none? guess i should have bought a lottery ticket.

just brought this one home. another 1984 SM500.
only difference and the reason i picked it up, is this one is a 24"x24" wheel version.
how cool is that?

Cool indeed Roy, a very nice pair. Is there anything that can't be found in BC?
