    Hey Missouri Rockers

    Please give me the low down on Shaman's Harvest. I just recently discovered them on Youtube and love their sound. I think they are on the verge of the big time. I am impatiently waiting for two CD's I got of Amazon. \m/ \m/ 62H

    Big Wheel Build

    Until now all my "builds" have been nothing more than bolt on goodies and sometimes paint... Today the mighty Rigid cordless reciprocating saw joined the build team. The headtube will be cut between the top and down tubes, leaving a 3 1/2" long headtube, which will get a 1" threadless...

    Dropbar to flatbar road bike conversion

    All Knowing RRB Community, If I am going to convert a dropbar road bike, with traditional caliper road brakes, to a flatbar ride, what type of brake levers work correctly with the brakes? I am thinking standard mountain levers, non V brake type, so that they're pulling the proper amount of...

    Seen at Sears

    In the Christmas Decoration clearance section yesterday. Small pewter ornaments of a screwdriver and another of a pair of slip joint pliers. Marked down to $5 each. Would be neat used as intended or to add to a Rat Rod project as finishing touches.
