    Lengthening A Chain

    In my latest project, I am ready to put the chain on and it came up a little short. I have another old chain, which is rusted and needs work, but I figured that I could take a few links from that one to make up the deficit from the other one.

    Bicycle Helmets ????

    Thanks for the replies and letting me know what you choose to do. I never realized that I would spur such a spirited debate, but it is an issue that needs to be discussed. I bought a cool looking helmet and It came in today, but it was too big for my head....so look for it in the 'for sale'...

    Bicycle Helmets ????

    I have a question for any other members that should happen to read this. How many of you wear a helmet while riding your bikes along the roads or around town ? Now I'm not talking the bullet shaped helmet, because that style is not me....but I'm talking the skateboard or mulit-sport type...

    Converting a road bike into a cruiser ?

    Thanks so far for all of you advice. It has definately gotten my creative juices flowing. This is not my first build, but the first one was more cosmetic and inter-changeable and less technical. This build is personal, so I would like to get it as right as possible. Don

    Converting a road bike into a cruiser ?

    Well....maybe I was wrong. The tire size that is on the bike says 26 x 1 3/8...even though the rim diameter is 24" ? What's up with this ? Don

    Virginia Beach Rat Rods

    That's where I got the itch.....fixed up and rode a rat during my days at Elon College in N.C., but it got stolen and haven't had the urge until my wife and I went to VB for 4th of July. Lots of cool bikes. Where was this bar?

    Pics Of Home Made Rear Racks

    Randy, I have seen a version of that rack before and I liked it. I like yours. I had been thinking about doing one like it, but in a natural distressed finish. Right now, I'm in the planning stage of how to make the frame and attach it to the bike.
