Since I am using the dana as a jackshaft I need to find out what the actual gear ratios are I found some info only stating how much percentage over or under standard drive the gears where but unfortunately that isnt enough info to help me I installed the dana on a standard schwinn frame with...

My idea with dynamo is to turn the dana into a jackshaft and place it into the area of the bend in order to replicate the look of a motor on a vintage boardtracker for anyone who is curious the bottom bracket uses standard 5/8 bearings with a cotter pin crank The kit for installing the dana...

Unfortunately no been busy with a few things one of them being a new part acquisition for a different bicycle that i want to immediately start working on meet Dynamo a Stelber Jet Streak I Bought this bike a few years back because i really like the stelber designed frame look at this lower...

Getting the new bb ready to attach to frame Its off the Columbia double eagle tandem that I cut up last year One of the best parts about this particular bb is it only has one small hole where the seat tube was originally attached I will use that as the initial location area where it will be...

Close up of the rear extender piece now that it has been modified and bolted to the arm (i did have to shave a little off the end to make it slide into the bracket) Here is the springer bracket If you notice I had to trim off a small part to help it clear the seat post tube with out doing...

Sorry for the delay but I decided I needed to attach the rear springer arms to the bb It turned out the old attachment way interfered with the crank arms no matter what I did Since I will need to put in a new bb for the crank I decided it would look better integrating the bb as the mounting...

Found a way that to make another attachment area using more parts from the 20" springer took a bit to find a way that didnt look to cluttered This is bolt setup I used to make the springer attachment work the middle spaces are sandwiched inside the hole with the wider outside spaces holding...

Picked up this black on black 18" coaster brake wheel with 18 x 3.0 tire still not ready to chose between a 20" or an 18" but at least now i have the option to mock both up and see

I do have a set of crank arms from a juvenile monark bike that are 1" shorter than standard crank arms if it turns out that isn't enough clearance then I will employ a similar method for relocating the bottom bracket without welding like I did in my build off bike from last year...

I don't know how well you can see it in this picture but there is a good amount of room on both sides without resorting to any massaging but that is with a standard 2.125 wide tire a 3" wide might either require massaging or running the bars on the outside of the frame still working on extra...

I cut up the base of the springer headtube Then attached it to the kickstand location location of the monark frame Will add 2nd bolt hole to stabilize later Then threw on the other springer parts to get a rough mock up Definitely need to get some new bolts, nuts, and spacers Plus need to...

Still having analysis paralysis with my fork stretching options but the i did get an idea for the rear setup I know that I want either an 18" or 20" rear tire and a lowered rear after mocking up a few ideas I have decided to repurpose a 20" springer fork to help achieve the look I'm after...

Soon but 1st Extend extend (the fork that is) Looking to stretch it about 6 or 7 inches without cutting up the fork I have a few idea to work on so there will not be much updating till that gets done 1st Also have to straighten the forks and headtube Current plan is to run black rims and...

Got a monark ladies frame and a bent up monark springer that I plan on turning into a bare metal chopper Changing my build off bike go to page 2 and see the progress on Dynamo

First off to answer your ? the ISO size you are looking for is 547 (largest diameter 24" rim) unfortunately very little variety of that size is available 37mm (1.45in) is the widest available you would need to find 24" s7 rims which have an ISO of 520 47mm (1.85) is the widest that you can...

I'm with wildcat and guitarlcarl 1.5 or 40mm AND under for the skinny tire class Heck I say why not go all the way up to 1.75 / 47mm Call it a light/middle weight build off

Ended up going with a standard coaster brake rear wheel 26 x 1 3/8 (590) whitewall Since the fender is a middleweight I couldn't do a 26 x 2.125 The only other rear I could have tried was a 700 to kick up the rear higher But I didn't have one ready to go with a coaster braje Kept the...

Been really trying to make this bike a left side drive but It may turn out to not have enough time to do the plan B before the deadline In the meantime I decided on going with the exerciser seat post holder The 90 bend would be problematic if not done straight This gives me some room for error...

A bit of bad new over the weekend I discovered a Crack in coaster hub right where the extra cog is welded Not sure if it is a old crack or newly developed when I was modifying the cog Rather than take a chance I have decided to go back to a simpler design for Fire woman At least I have a week...
