Well, today I've had a blast riding this bike. Man it was fun. I just had to put air in the front tire but the back one was shot so I put a new whitewall on it. The rear tire was the original Goodyear Wing Foot. (I guess it was original anyway). I soaked the hub down to clean it and found the markings on it. Does anyone know what the 36 26 means? I know the 58 is the year. Anyway, I also removed the two front springer things because one of them has the hole where it bolts to the front axle broken. I think I can braze it. In case you notice, I also removed the rear reflector from the fender. With the new tire the bolt rubbed it so I'll have to install it with a shorter one. Anyway, I'm loving it. I still have it listed on CL but if I get any calls on it I think I'll tell them it's no longer for sale :shock: . Well, finally the pic's.

Well 36 would be the spoke count, but 26??? A lot of hubs will say the sprocket tooth count, like the old Morrow hubs would say 36-13 or something (skip tooth). Guess you could count the teeth! And what kinda hub is that anyway? Perry? Komet? ~Adam
