    Stingrays and 3 speed hubs

    Just a couple of quick questions. I want to convert my KK roadster to a 3 speed. Possibly a 24" fat tire. I've seen many many Stingrays for sale on CL and see that some MAY have 3 speeds. Do they? Can the hub from one be used for my bike? Will it work? They're so .... cheap, I though that...

    Anyone with a Slick Daddy?

    Hello all, I just purchases a KK Roadster and of course like everyone else, I can't leave well enough alone. My wife is already rolling her eyes. I really like the stance of the Slick Daddy and so my first mod will be a TT Fork. The only question that I have ( to those that own a SD ) is...
