This is a really nice bike. I see it sitting in the shop window. I am also in Milan and in the middle of a project. May have to look you up for ideas.

Multiple question post. 1) What is you experience with powder coating.....Like/Dislike....is it more durable than paint? 2) On old bike how well does Powder Coating fill in small rust pits(after having bike stripped small pits appear)? 3) Your opinion- If chrome is bad on handlebars powder...

Are all of you saying that this "dust cover" was originally a friction fit into the end of the hub?

In the top picture you see how what I call a dust cover is loose. How is that held in place? In the middle picture this is the parts of my front hub. Are they laid out in order of how they go on the axle. I know the hub is not in picture. In the bottom picture...loose dust cover.

Thanks for the tips. That helps.

Where do you find new bearings Excel #7...can you pick them up locally? What type of store?

I have taken apart my hubs and wondered what type of lubricant I use for the bearings and inside the hub. I have a New Departure Hyatt Model D rear hub.

I'm new at this, so I didn't know what to expect....Identical or just one that fits....I guess it's what you want. Who would know when it's done? I do see both of them though...thanks for the help....

Rebel 56 So your talking of the Red one with the chrome back/top?

That tank had a curved bottom edge....I believe mine should be straight on the bottom...is that correct?

Thanks for the info.

Thanks for the input. I will begin the search.

Same question for the badge....where would I look for one?

I have been told this is a 50-51 CWC Road Master Frame. Is there other information I need such as dimensions for the tank and where would I find one?

thanks....
