    Found this old Wrights saddle in a parts bin and paid $5 for it. It looked pretty sad but a scrubbing with saddle soap, application of leather conditioner, reshaping of the leather and a good brushing brought back it’s original brown colour and beauty.

    Rear hub replacement question.

    So I had my LBS guy install a single speed hub for me and its running good. I like the simplicity. He installed new spokes and built the wheel , aligned the chain line for $43.00

    Rear hub replacement question.

    No back brake..I’m just running front hydraulic disc brakes. My frame doesn’t have a mount on the rear for a disc brake. I suppose I could consider a bolt on disc brake mount if I’m changing the rear hub.

    Rear hub replacement question.

    the shimano nexus 3 speed rear hub on my electric Ruff Tango bike broke. I think I want to just replace the hub with a single speed hub to keep it simple, but I am unsure of what hub to order off Amazon or eBay that would work. My rear dropouts are 135 mm wide. I don’t need a coaster brake. 36 h...

    I need advice on this fork issue

    I took the amp research fork to a welder and he told me he could extend the stem for me but of course it would be costly. For now I picked up this steel GT transit bike for $60 a couple weeks ago. I think its from the 90s. I liked the style of the frame and it had a shorter head tube that would...

    I need advice on this fork issue

    I don't really want to chop and weld this fork at this point. I'm going to explore all other options first. I have acquired another frame that should fit, but I wanted to use this Ruff Lucky frame to complete this trail bike.. I really appreciate all the great advice and input
