    need 26 inch 5 speed drum brake rear wheel

    I have one of these. I thought it was an atom drum but I found out I was wrong. I laced it to a steel rim and did the offset up for single speed. It's a long axle and you could re rig it for five speed. If you're interested email me at [email protected]. You can have it for the cost...

    1973 Schwinn World Voyageur Kool Orange

    I love those. Someday I'll find one. Never seen one with the little orange rubbers on the brake levers. That's classy.

    1942 Columbia Sports Tourist

    Genuine Goodyear 599s; red on the inside; Of course the real reason we build our own wheels is so we can really polish our hubs; The chainguard might be a replacement. In some light it looks like paint over chrome. I think it's the original style, though.

    1942 Columbia Sports Tourist

    So Columbia made a fillet brazed lightweight. I just had to have it. Maybe I'm the only one out there who loves these early diamond frame american bikes. It seems like most people sell the hubs and the chains to the ballooner guys and throw them away. The Amish look really turns me on. It was...

    The Future is Here: Trashed Black Friday Stingray

    I got one of those purple "Bratz" bikes out of a dumpster about 5 years ago. My daughter couldn't ride it cause of the apes and the springer so the wheels and fenders went on this other bike I'm building and the frame got chopped up to make this ...thing that I haven't finished yet. If it were...

    Show us your Vintage Raleighs!

    And a little more detail on this one would be inspirational. I've got a couple of dead frames that might need an idea like this.
