I own 27 bicycles & need another project bike like I need a hole in my head. Grandpa had an auto and bicycles repair shop back in Sicily before coming to NY. A father-son project in the summer of '77, tear down, repaint and rebuild of a Ross Apollo Racer ( I hated that poop brown)- I caught the bug, and been turning a wrench ever since. 2 Stingrays, 2 Hornets, choppers, cruisers, folders, mtb, touring, racers, 5 Apollos, 8 ebikes added because of a bad back. I completed two Schwinn projects this Summer: 26" King Coal Krate with 3 speed Stick shift coaster, 24" front electric hub, & Savica 1 speed rear electric hub cruiser, banana seat with tall sissy bar.
I have a triple tree fork that I'd like to use, and looking for ideas. Cantilever frames are hard to find. The frames I have, either have an extreme rake or long steerer tube. I may go with either of these two posted, not sure if I like it.
I'd love to see pics!!
