Ok so this is my newest build and I am looking for a cool sprocket to use. I will not be using a skiptooth on this one so if you have a cool sprocket that you might sell, I am totally interested! Post pics of what you have and I'll be choosing one for sure.
BTW,...I do have the tank for this bike, I just don't have it done yet!
Thanks all, I know I can count on you!

Thanks lonewolf! And I also would like everyones opinion on how the womans monark springer was mounted onto a standard mens head tube with no cutting or re-threading.

It looks like you made a spacer of some sort, and added another bearing cup in there. I think a Monark teardrop chainring would look good on there! Looks like a Snyder/Hawthorne/Rollfast frame. -Adam
 
bikes looking great! :D cant go wrong with a monark teardrop,star,5 spoke columbia,or an older shelby sprocket. im pretty sure thats a rollfast frame,cause it looks like my RRBO4 bike. :) meet your older brother!

Here's those chain rings I got, I also have a nice chain guard that'd look killer on it. and keeping with tradition my foot is in the shot....lol

I like the 5 point star too! How much? Do you think it'll clean up?
As for the guard, I've got more than I know what to do with along with skiptooth chainrings but thanks!

I think it'll clean up great I rubbed a little spit on it and it shined pretty well. I don't need it and I find them all the time, make me an offer and it's yours.

The slotted Murray ring goes with the chainguard, but I like the 5-point star sprocket better. :|

Actually they both came off entirely different bikes, those slotted rings came on about everything though.

I just leave them how I find them till I find a use for it or sell it, some people like the rusted and aged patina.
