contents of closed Bike shop

[KZ1000]

Bought this large load from the widow of a bike shop that closed in the early 1980's, got pictures of the bulk of it, also included were lots of small bins with small parts and hardware, thousands of spokes and more 24" tires than there were bikes. Rick Click on photos to enlarge

Tell me you have a "knock-out" hub cheap and you will make my year!!!!! :mrgreen:

That is better than Xmas!

 

[Slick Rick]

Sorry dude got busy for a minute, a knock-out hub is used for a cycle-truck front wheel. Earlier models have axle "holes" at the end of the fork rather than "slots". The stand mounts to the axle as well, with stand and wheel in place the axle is pushed through and bolted. Or, in the case of dis-assembly, un-bolted and "knocked out".They are larger in diameter than most standard hubs and accept the larger ga. spokes(105 ga.) Oh, BTW nice score! Lots of E-pay material for sure! LMK if you happen to find one, needdle in a haystack I'm sure, but thought perhaps a little luck might come my way! Later & PEACE!!! :mrgreen:

Sent you a PM on that red seat.

 

[KZ1000]

Thanks for all the responses, I have been swamped with emails and PM's, I will be selling quite a bit as there is more than I can ever use, I have not even seen it all myself yet and it will take me sometime to go thru it and decide what I am keeping and what s going. sorry for the tease, but I am just swamped in my real job(Heating Contractor), and need to sort this stuff out, Thanks Rick

Hey excelent find. If you have a extra rear 24 inch wheel. I would like to buy it off of you.

 

[kingplinker]

man-o-man what a score! The wooden boxes should be in a museum

If & when you sell, I may be interested in other truing stand on right, and one, or all of those white-wall slicks, and if by chance you have any 3" (yes, three inch) spokes.

AMAZING SCORE!!! Been some great -HUGE ones on here lately - you shoudl have just bought the building, quit your day job and and re-opened "THE KZ1000 Bike Farm" - my brother has a tricked KZ1000......
