19, they all need something. The disease is contagious though, my girl has 5 of her own. somehow almost all of hers are complete.

he sold it 5 mins before i called him. oh well

awesome, gonna call the guy now thanks

you can take the lock ring off an older 10 speed bottom bracket and jb weld it to your hub. its not perfect but its better than a total suicide fixed. get at least a front brake.

I think i gotta go check it out today. anything i should look for to make sure its not a wal-,mart schwinn? location of serial, welds to look for, anything? Thanks, kev

I just saw that motorcitygearjammer said he welded his. Looks like thats what i will need to do. You can consider this topic closed unless someone has a brilliant idea that wouldn't require welding.

Hey Everyone, So i have a freaky swing bike, and i am inspired by the recent build off to invert the stem to the bottom side of the fork. Problem is i cant figure out how to do it. I have a fairly narrow stem but its just way to big for any fork i have. Do i need to sand/grind the stem down, or...

sounds like a great idea. i might consider dressing up my bmx

I saw that ad on CL too, i almost emailed the seller to give him a heads up but i got lazy.

So this is basically what im starting with. except mine is chrome and in pieces. i plan to have the seat at about 5" and the grips just above that. http://www.pedalroom.com/p/runt-bike-1506_1.jpg

i tried messing around with the rear axle spacing and the chainring is not adjustable and it is on a 3 piece crank (no shims). my only real option was a dished out rear sprocket unless i wanted my wheel off of center. i found a 22 tooth dished out sprocket at a LBS for $10. I still want a 18...

My buddy snapped a pic of that van 6-12 months ago. There are more bikes now. They are covering the sides now.

Hey Dr. T, how many teeth are on that sprocket?

Thanks Spincycle, that is exactly what I'm looking for. Now if only I can find one in a 17-19 tooth. Are the OCC stingrays coaster brake? if so, does anyone know how many teeth the cogs have and are they an offset cog?
