    corvette question

    It's cool, but what is it?

    Just picked this up at flea market. There is no headbadge, and no holes for one, so I don't know much about it. I think it has blackout ND hubs, but has been sprayed silver. The inside of wheels is military green. Could this be a military bike?

    I found this western flyer and had to pick it up. I had no idea western flyer was around long enough to get into mountain bikes. The forks have gussets that look more like a bmx. I also have never seen a 10 speed mountain bike. Also never seen the stem attach to bars more like a motorcycle...

    picked this up recently. It can't be seen in photo, but it has a drum brake in back. I can't tell what it is other than a schwinn. The chainguard is pretty faded.

    Is there a secret to getting the sprocket off of the new departure rear hub? I can't seem to get it off, and need to be able to get out the bearings in there to clean them. This has a locknut. Does the locknut, and sprocket both come off counterclockwise? The last one of these I worked on, I...

    schwinn racer

    [/img][url][/url Found this Schwinn Racer for 20 dollars, so I had to do it. I found the clover chainring is bent, so just going with something else for now. Plan to just clean it up, chip off the splatter concrete, etc . I like that it is a nice bigger frame than most of what I have.

    sturmey archer help

    Anybody familiar with a S.A. that wants to pop out of second gear? It seems like the cable is adjusted correctly, but it still wants to pop out to a neutral position, then seems to catch the gear again, but it's really annoying. Thanks
