    Brazing help in/near St. Louis, MO needed

    Anyone interested in helping me out? I have a loose cantilever post on a otherwise mint 1983 Hodaka made Terranaut (Touring Cyclist house brand) Wanderer. The bike belonged to my father originally and has a bit of sentimental value which is why I don't want to just replace the fork. Thanks!

    the Frankenclubman project

    I call this one the frankenclubman project. It kinda ended up as an unintentional tribute to Sheldon and all the vintage bike porn on RetroRaleighs.com. A true rat, built of various pieces from various years made by various manufacturers with a lot of custom tweaks. Most notably, the fenders are...

    67 Typhoon rat

    tire question...

    What are the largest tires F&R I can fit on a 67 Typhoon? I believe it's an S7 rim. With and without the fenders ... tho I think I'm gonna keep the them or cut a set of donor heavyweight fenders to fit. I'm considering using a 24x? on the rear (I'm pretty sure a 24x3 won't fit) and a fattest...

    Me and my bikes
