    Hello from Calgary!

    A bit belated but, welcome. I don't know if your "allowed" to have red rims with white wall tires without any rust on the bike. Just kidding. Ride free! Kustom parts http://uncommonbikeparts.weebly.com/ Spare a heart, eat a plant!

    Winter Time Blues

    No blues here despite the 5F and 2ft of snow. I traded 6 flipable dumpster finds from the summer for a paint job on my latest project bike. My third KK stretch is being painted as I type.

    dyno moto glde conversion

    Chain width is more dependent on type of riding and if you have more than one gear or not. If its one speed I would say its up to you. If its coaster brake I would reccomend 1/8" chain.

    Grips not sticking?

    Windex all the way! As long as both surfaces are clean. This has only worked with newer rubber grips. Old dried up crusty ones will need some sort of adhesive.

    Bike Found After 50 Years

    I like how "Don" refered to it as a toy. I've never thought of bikes as being a toy. Bikes have always been in its own category for me. Toys, furniture, bikes, my wife's crap... Etc

    Stretch Cruiser Fenders

    I'm not surprised by your springer issues. I would suggest holding off untill you can find a springer from a Kustom Kruiser or something. Just keep looking in the for sale section on all the different bike forums. Place a wanted ad even. I have to KK roadsters and the springers are sweet. I had...
