    multi speed skiptooth hubs?

    Hmmm, I like the ichi deal but I'm trying to stay with at least a somewhat vintage hub. I'm thinking all try it with a Sturmy Archer 3speed. If it fails I'll move in for a nexus setup. That musselman 2 speed is pretty wicked! ...... deal though.

    Thrift Stores

    I know what you are feeling exactly. I have never seen or scored anything cool bike wise from a thrift store. Goodwill usually blows for anything but work shirts. Salvation Army on the other hand is where I've scored some cool stuff in the past.

    If I bought fishnet I definitely won't be for me :lol: maybe the girlfriend. Come to think of it lace wouldn't be bad either.... Bikes Bikes gotta stay on track. :D I really need to learn how to true and lace wheels for this project. Gotta stay as low budget as possible.
