so what does everyone think about it let me no what your thoughts are on it :D :mrgreen:
 
Re: UPDATED PHOTOS OF MY COLUMBIA 2/13/2009!!!

I think a bigger wheel up front...if ya cant fit a 26" what about a 24"?
 
Re: UPDATED PHOTOS OF MY COLUMBIA 2/13/2009!!!

i think if i put a larger tire on it it would hit the fendar i wanted anyway a sloped down front thanks though :D
 
Re: UPDATED PHOTOS OF MY COLUMBIA 2/13/2009!!!

alrighty then seems to be the case everyone wants to see a larger tire i will take the tire off and put the old tire back on it and i will post photos of it
 
Re: UPDATED PHOTOS OF MY COLUMBIA 2/13/2009!!!

no dice the 26inch tire way to big wont fit and i dont have a 24inch and i dont think that would even work either :roll:
 
Re: UPDATED PHOTOS OF MY COLUMBIA 2/13/2009!!!

If you adjust the fender(you may have to drill a new mounting hole), you should be able to fit a 26 up there. I have 2 of these forks, and 26s fit fine... But if you like the sloped look, roll with it. But the way you have it set up, with the spring part reversed, even with a 26 it will slope down in the front a little.

There is a mounting tab sticking out of the fender. The fender you have on now, "screwed" in underneath the bottom of the fork. CUT the tab off, and drill a hole, to mount like that one...........That fender is for a 26 inch wheel, I was just wondering if ya got it or not.
 
Re: UPDATED PHOTOS OF MY COLUMBIA 2/13/2009!!!

if the mounting tab is riveted on, you should be able to drill it out. It'll remove the tab and "create" a hole to mount it..

howdy i have added a shorter crank and i have had the bike shop shortend the chain as i dont own a chain tool and the bike shop put my vintage bicycle reflector on the back and i got there at the bike shop a 20.75 white kenda tire for the rim i got from unchained and i order a white kenda 26 x 2.125 for the back :D
 
Re: UPDATED PHOTOS OF MY COLUMBIA 2/13/2009!!!

i think the small wheel has potential. remove the front fender and stick a fat white wall on that wheel. the tire and fender more than anything look out of place on that bike.

Re: UPDATED PHOTOS OF MY COLUMBIA 2/13/2009

Have patience, Micah. When you bump up your posts with nothing NEW on it, people may not "click" on it when you DO have something new.....There are so many threads to look at, and so little time to look.
 
Re: NO NEW PHOTOS OF MY COLUMBIA LAST UPDATED 2/13/2009

Hi Micah,

Payment for the wheel was received today, unfortunately we are snowed in up here and I wasn't able to ship it today. It is ready and will be going out tomorrow afternoon.
