so, i'm at work and thinking i want to buy a new springer front fork. Since i'm at work and can't measure, are bikes of this age typically 1 1/8"? would something like this work? http://www.nirve.com/nirve-accessories.asp?id=1615

Thanks mithcelangelo! I've got a lot to learn. Looking forward to it!

Hi all, picked up a western flyer a few weeks ago. Someone here helped me identify it as being from the 50's. As it sits right now, i've torn it apart and it's hanging on my wall and workbench in the garage. I hope to do some degreasing, cleaning and a bit of sanding this weekend to get it...

I'm having no luck finding out what the serial number means. You guys have any thoughts?

Ok, picked up the western flyer Any ideas on the year? #looks like 6121906

On the western flyer, they're stuck at 115, but I'm not going up from 100. Originally, they only wanted to sell me the set pictured for 175. No thanks. The columbia, they want 100, but 75 is what I got him to come down to.

Thanks for all the replies guys. I'll post my results if/when I make it happen.

And a classic rookie forum mistake.this is in the wrong section. Could a mod move this for me? And thanks Toeslider! I was leaning that direction.
