    Thanks! All is well. Still playing and riding bikes (mostly MTB). My last build. (seat is different now). My first MTB was a 1989 Rockhopper Comp and I could not resist when this frame came up for sale.

    28 inch tire size question

    Sheldon Brown has the answer. https://www.sheldonbrown.com/gloss_sa-o.html#singletube So you could try the modern tubular or.... There are some tires that were reproduced by Coker that were a tubular tire. They are no longer made and cost a pretty penny...

    KHS Special Touring- Commuter

    The fork is not bent...must be the picture. I filed the brake slot lower plus some other tricks and it didn't work. I will start looking for some Shimano XT cantilevers as they have been known to work. Sent from my moto x4 using Tapatalk

    KHS Special Touring- Commuter

    Since the Talisman frame cracked, I am in need of new commuter. I rode the last bike 250+ days/year for the last nine years as my commuter and around town bike. I found this bike down at the local bike coop at an "as is" price. I should be able to sell a few of the parts to cover the cost...

    Talisman - Cracked frame

    The frame/fork was handbuilt by a little known builder in Seattle and has been my daily commuter for 9 years. It probably wont' be worth it after welding and repaint or powder coat when I should be able to find a frame/fork for less than $200.

    Talisman - Cracked frame

    @LukeTheJoker I dont' have the room to sleeve due to tire and chainring clearance. This frame will probably become a wall hanger. Just need to find an old cyclocross or touring frame, so I can transfer my parts.

    Talisman - Cracked frame

    This bike may finally be done. I found cracks on both chainstays, though it still rides fine. Looking for a new frame, then might try having this frame welded.

    ‘84 Mongoose ATB

    Nice bike. I have an 85 without the cool bi-plane fork. I need to rebuild the wheels as the spokes are rusted. Where did you find that shiny mylar tape? I need some blue.

    Front brake suggestions please

    A drum brake might be your only option. https://www.amazon.com/Sturmey-Archer-Sturmey-Archer-X-FD-Silver/dp/B001GSQP36/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_263_t_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=HFKADAE0WCRB5WY5GGSN

    SCHWINN STRANGER THINGS STING-RAY

    Odd chainguard. Not a classic Schwinn guard. Did Mike ride Schwinn in Stranger Things?

    1955 Schwinn Typhoon Value?

    You are correct about 1976. Price depends on location and supply. In Idaho that would we worth $120-200. In Iowa, less than $100.
