    can this seat's stains be removed?

    got this mooneyes seat and it would be mint if not for the discoloring. i am not happy with this seat. the pics didn't show imperfections when i bought it. the chrome is perfect, and no ware or tear at all. if not for the color this could pass off as nos. seat cover is vinyl. don't want to use...

    restoring a custom chopper

    picked this chopper up a few weeks back. the back rim was bent and the forks also were bent. even though the forks and rim were bent, still rode great. i basically traded a nice old school style skateboard for it. i really got it just to flip. but then i got it dialed in enough to put a few...

    schwinn wheel question.

    got this 1963 schwinn stingray and yes it is a real 1963 stingray. the forks were replaced in the mid to late 60s and i think the front rim was replaced as well. i can only find an nn on the rear rim but it does have a bendix hub. i know s-2 rims were on schwinn, i just don't know were to find...

    easy ape hanger fix

    i saw a few people having problems with ape hangers stripping out on another site and saw they would weld them to the stem as a fix. i was surprised no one had ever tried this old school bmx fix. i stripped many handlebars in the 80s and early mid 90s. take a soda can cut the top and bottom off...

    i have had this dyno for about 4 years now. and in that time it has many changes. i put the electra rims on it and will put a jocky shifter on it. the rims are not that great. they have sat for a few years, so the checkered rear rim's paint is cracked. the nipples are rusty and the front rim has...
