Sorry guys, once again I'll be the odd man out (LOL). I have a holiday party out here in the 'burbs I've already committed to. Have a great ride.

Probably $10-15 each. I'll ask him. They'll be cheaper now that the setup is done.

It'll have a chainguard eventually, but plenty of the chainring will still be seen. Thanks for the good words. SlyRed

If you search eBay for Torrington pedals you can see the ones I used. The red pedal treads do almost match the tires. SlyRed

Re: My CWC Roadmaster RestoMod (Paladin) Bill, the handlebars, Lucky Seven seat post, seat post clamp, the chainring and four small parts for the springer were ~$250. I use Badger Plating in St. Francis, WI. The stem is a nice vintage one I picked up at a swap meet. It didn't need replating.

Re: My CWC Roadmaster RestoMod (Paladin) The bike can be built up as soon as I get my front wheel (Felt Cruiser) from Motostrano. It's been back ordered two months. Rear wheel is built. Sturmey Archer three speed with coaster brake on Felt Cruiser rim.
