Thanks for the replies. The guy got a cash offer for his and backed out at the last minute. Might be posting in the FOR SALE forum or I might just keep it. Guess I can always just go out and buy a new mountain bike, but I can't just pick up a Schwinn like that at the LBS. Thanks again.

Hey guys. I might be trading my DX for a new mountain bike. It's a 2013 Specialized Rockhopper 29er (stock). But I was hoping some of you could help me out in determining if this is a good deal for me or not. I feel like my bike should be worth more, but there is probably a...
Finally got the wheel taken apart and relaced my freshly cleaned hub again. Worked like a charm. Thanks for the help guys. I guess you can't underestimate a good cleaning. It's like night and day.
Took the hub apart and let every bit soak in Simple Green for two days (which pretty much did...
New Departure Model D Hub help...
Does anyone know how to restore the braking power to these hubs? Mine takes forever to stop. Any advice?
Thanks in advance,

Hey guys...any help or imput on this one would be greatly appreciated. I just picked it up on CL for my wife for $40. No head badge and has a poor repaint that covered up anything else. I haven't had a chance to really look it over, so I'm not even sure where to find the serial number. It is...
Thanks John. That's actually another reason I wanted that picture. I was going to let you know I finally signed up, but you beat me to it. I've since stolen the reflector from the old seat and added it to the new one and replaced the kickstand with a drop kickstand. Don't think the kickstand...
That's funny. I was browsing the site the other day, and saw those pics from your 4th of July ride. I remember thinking it was cool to see pics on here from the beach. Hope to see you around...I'll keep an eye out for your bike.
BY THE WAY...I just wanted to give credit where credit is due...
