I'd like to see what you guys did for cranks. Original? TruVativ bb adapter? More than likely I'll be going with a 26x2.4 setup and will be on some trails. I made a booboo and tried using an oldschool Schwinn crank and the arms are too close to the chainstays. Bicycle808 chimed in and has helped...

Anyone else run 24T or higher? I know Endless makes them in 24t but it's not worth $50 to be honest. I think there are some DIY methods but I don't have a welder.

I let this bb sit in a Dawn and Simple Green mixture for a couple days and BAM super clean! No elbow grease required, I couldn't take a before shot because the parts were so nasty and my hands were beyond gross.

Nothing amazing going on here but I do plan to hit the trails with this thing! Thanks to ind-chuckz for the frame (soon to be another). Freebie tires and tubes thanks to the LBS! These will wrap some aluminum Electra rims. On a sad note I jacked up this ring trying to break it free from...

You guys think a 1 piece crank would be ok for a single speed klunker build? I can always swap out my bb adapter from another bike and have "regular" 3 piece cranks.

My dilemma is that my Ford Sport Trac has a terribly small bed. None of my bikes fit right unless I drop the tailgate. I'm not interested in anything that requires removing the front wheel. Any of you have those tailgate racks that use straps? Buying a hitch is an option but it's a $100+ option...

You notice the huge gap between the tire and fork? When I bought it on Amazon it was listed for 26" tires. The tires in the pic are 26x2.4. Well I didn't even use the fork for months after I bought it. I know it's a minor thing but drives me nuts! I've gone as far as tossing it into a parts bin...

Just refresh my memory... I'm working on a modern MTB to cruiser. The headset is 1-1/8 headset. I was going to order reducers (for $20) but I'd rather put that towards a headset. What measurement should I be focused on? Remove old cups and measure the head tube? My brain says it's simple but I'd...

Any of you tried this with gorilla tape? I LIKE BIKES

Anyone ever use a half link but it's so tight that the link doesn't move easily? Now I don't mean the chain as a whole is too tight, the pin is super tight. I LIKE BIKES

I've done some searching on here and I've seen people mention this idea. No pics and I don't exactly understand how it works as a layback post? I LIKE BIKES

Anyone ever order from them? $5 shipping on orders and the tires are low priced. I LIKE BIKES

Anyone else have one? I LIKE BIKES

Does such a thing exist?? I have 7/8 etc but I don't think I've seen a 1" ID. I'm thinking of cutting a 1" solid curved seat post. I LIKE BIKES

Well I know where to attach the arm (that bracket) but I need something else to keep the arm from sliding. Maybe another set of eyes can offer a simple solution.

Does this skinny tire look too small for the rear fork? The tire isn't fully aired but it's a 26x1-3/8. The frame is upside on the stand. I LIKE BIKES

I didn't find much on the subject and the one post with a write up was a dead link. So if you have put one of these on please help. I was about to press them in but they don't have the same feel the old bb's have. The ends aren't rounded at all and I don't want to damage the shell or bb adapter...

Road biking? Mountain biking? This is my sorta other biking thing, though I've yet to hit the trails this year. I built this up last summer after finding the frame on eBay. 2001Marin Nail Trail I LIKE BIKES
