    Ringle, Rock Shox, Deore AC Cranks

    I've got another project in the works so it is fundraising time. The cranks are really nice, Ringle skewers are in great shape. The ringle front hub is near new but the rear hub is cracked. The fork has a cracked brake bridge but otherwise it is in good shape. Small items ship FREE for...

    Bringing a Pre-War frame into the 20th century.

    I did not ream the headtube. I had the King headset milled to fit. Much easier and I can re-use the headset on other frames should the time come. The same guy that makes the bars did the headset. http://mrtick.us/Products.html

    Building a Klunker? You need this. Union Drum brake.

    Clunker Schwinn DX 1941 FINISHED page 8

    Re: Schwinn DX '40 Clunker Gary replica [wheelset pag 3] Even though your hub is only 126mm I would still advise cold setting the frame.

    More ebay insanity.

    This is my own stuff so I am happily surprised at how much this stuff is going for. I expected maybe $40 for the brake levers. http://www.ebay.com/sch/boogerlips0/m.h ... 7675.l2562

    1996 WTB Steel Phoenix 26”/650B (Restomod)

    There aren't many bikes that deserve this kind of dedication to a restoration. The details here are mind blowing. That chainguide is simply beautiful.

    Very nice working Manitou EFC 1.5 inch steerer

    Keep an eye on my ebay. My dog got injured this week and now I have a $1800 dollar vet bill to pay so unfortunately a lot of parts I have been hanging on to will have to be sold. I have some very clean deerhead parts coming up along with some newer shifters, cassettes etc.
