Finally finished my project Roadmaster 1941. I really like how the colours came out :-) Only have to put on the headbadge.

Ok, i think indeed that's the easiest way. Thanks.

The Roadmaster is in my garage and all in pieces. I'm in doubt of keeping the old fork or getting a brand new one but i'm a bit lost in the sizes. For example would this fork http://www.bicycledesigner.com/bike-parts/bicycle-forks/26-straight-springer-fork-heavy-duty---chrome.html fit my bike...

Thank you very much!! Gauge is that thicknes of the spoke? A bike from 1941 in Europe, i wonder how and when it got here....

Allright!! I found it :lol: On the hub bright and shining it now says: Eclips Machine Division Made in Elmira NY USA K1 36 13

Hi Dougfisk (and everybody else who likes to answer), I've taken most of the bike apart but i cannot find a letter on the rear hub. Maybe i'm searching in the wrong place. I've uploaded some pics on photobucket with different parts: http://s840.photobucket.com/user/Jupiler11/library/ Can you...

I drilled them out , putting it back will not be very soon. Thanks for the answers people!

Ok, thanks. That's the way. Can i replace it with very tiny bolts or screws? I've never done something like this and i think i own the only roadmaster in the Netherlands so there's nobody else to ask. I really like this forum :-)

I started my project with getting the tank of. Unftunately there was just nothing inside the tank. Because i have to paint the tank in the future i think it might be easy if i could remove the button. But without breaking anything i have no clue. Anybody? Inside tank Outside tank

Thanks guys, The rear hub is a Morrow but so far i couldn't find a date on it. I will get de bike apart in the next weeks, very careful because i've never done such a thing. If i find something new i will post in this thread. @dougfisk I was in Phoenix a couple of months ago, really liked it...

Just new on this forum, new in the vintage bikes and far away from nice parts for the bike i have some questions. I picked up this nice vintage bike and it was sold to me as a roadmaster but i have my doubts. The way the fork is formed (toppart) and the bends of the front fenderholders (is that...

I will do my best to write english as good as possible but in advance i'm sorry if i mess up some words or sentences. New to this forum and vintage bikes i'll introduce myself: I'm a 41 year old guy named Joris, i'm from the Netherlands and live close to the city 's-Hertogenbosch. I work as a...
