Hey everybody, I am looking for a felt rack like on the Felt Red Wolfe Bike. I think there was a military themed bike by Felt several years ago that had the same rack. I like the style and the thicker frame to it. ANY ideas on where I might get one? Or if anyone is selling one? Any info...

Thanks!

While I love the look of the 24" wheels they where not very efficient while riding so I switched to a 26" setup and added a set of Apehangers. Never thought I was an apehanger type of guy but I love how comfortable the bike is now. The combination of the fast/smooth rolling wheels and the bars...

Ideally they should be just below shoulder level. If they are too high then your hands can become numb as blood has a hard time reaching your hands. Don't ask me how I know. Mine are 13.5" and they are perfect for me.

Which model Sunlite handlebar is that? Thinking about switching mine up and the picture of you riding looks very upright/comfortable. Cheers, Dan

Went to my LBS and mechanic said the same thing. He said a good quality one will not slip so that is the route I am going to take. Also going to put some lubricant on the underparts of the seat to see if that helps with the noise.

Decided to build a cruiser with my motorcycle as a blueprint for paint and black/white combo. First the motorcycle which my wife has named "Big Moe" Now the bike which of course is named "Mini Moe" White stripe more visible in these pics.

Thanks for the replies. I think I might try this adapter and get rid of the original 2 bolt clamp which does not seem to be working for me anyways. https://www.wallbike.com/saddle-accessories/breeze-seat-sandwich Also I will lube & treat my seat and see if that helps with the noisy rubbing...

So I love my bike but there are a couple things that are driving me crazy with my B190 saddle. First off, it squeeks like CRAZY! It is very annoying! Any ideas to help cut down on the very noisy seat? After further investigation it looks like the noise comes from the leather saddle rubbing...

Its been a while since I've posted so I thought I would add my bike to this thread. It was a Felt Canvas Frame kit that i built up from scratch.

That is what I thought. Went down and took the wheel off my wife's cruiser (has 26" wheels) and it fits no problem on mine so question answered. Thanks for the tips. Cheers

I have my Felt cruiser and have 2.5" x 24" rims with Fatti-o 3" tires. While I love the look the bike does not ride too well and has less than stellar handling so I am looking at switching to 26" wheels. My question is can I fit 26" rims with a 2.25-2.35" tire on the bike, anyone done this...

This is the B190-Largest seat they make and man is it comfortable! Would highly recommend and Brooks saddle.

Thanks! The bike garnered a lot of attention on Saturday on the local seawall. Lovin it so far!!

Well it took a little longer than expected but the build is done and I am very happy with the results.
