    Yeah that sucks, I've bought a lot of stuff online and have had mostly good experiences but with much due diligence.

    Wow! I would love to get that for my wife and daughter. Would you be interested in shipping it. Probably cost too much but I have to ask.

    Balloon tire fixie upgrade

    Ugg, I feel like such a hack now but a 2x4 through the frame and strap/clamp the bike to a workbench and pry, flip and repeat. Little bits at a time and string the frame to make sure I keep it straight but that's how I've been doing it.

    GT Dyno cruiser build

    Suitable shifter found! Here's where I'm at with the Dyno now. Still not finished though, waiting for more parts, it's getting closer though. Definitely has been fun putting this together so far. Really it's been a stress reliever, at least when I wasn't screwing things up! First initial ride I...

    My bars came in today I can't show you all yet, waiting for my intern seat to show up first. I will say that I am very happy with what I found.

    GT Dyno cruiser build

    Wheels arrived yesterday, so I mounted up the tires and mocked up a bit. Got a little clear weather today so I was able to get outside and get a little teaser shot! I'm pretty pleased with where this is heading so far.

    GT Dyno cruiser build

    So while we are on the subject of cranks. What about width? I'm not taking about bottom bracket width but between the pedals. Are all the ashtabula cranks the same? I'm thinking not but I really don't know.

    Home made leather bike tool bag

    Wow, so nice! Reminds me of when my grandma used to be into leather working when I was little. I was just looking at tool bags a couple of days ago too! Maybe....... nah better not, I got too many rabbit holes open as it is. Live long our brothers do, in our hearts, by our hands A fleeting...

    GT Dyno cruiser build

    My frame showed up today! I was able to check out the dimensions and get a headset ordered. Was exactly what size I thought it would be but I'm learning to slow my roll ordering parts on assumptions.

    Hello from Fort Bragg California

    I might just do that. I'm waiting for tires to arrive for the final tear down/ rebuild. I actually have three different builds going on right now. Got caught up in the madness!!!

    GT Dyno cruiser build

    Thanks, I am hoping it comes together nicely. I've been looking at Dyno/GT parts till my head hurts. The fork is a Sunlite Deluxe model, seems pretty nice although I'm going to have to do a little work to it to get it working smoothly. My Sportsman's Flyer is the lightweight version with the...
