    Here in the Denver area we have a club that meets the third Sunday of every month for a show and ride. Hosted by Blu Martinez, there are on average 20 of us that gather at Fishback Park near downtown Denver. I know they have a Facebook page, but I am not on FB so I do not post there. But having...

    Bad for Business

    Honestly doesnt look too slack, thought it would be a little more choppered out. Looks fun! Sent from my SM-G550T1 using Tapatalk

    Bad for Business

    Only thing I worry about is slacking out the headtube angle with the taller fork and wheel. It will be stable at speed and on the steeps, but climbing will be a little more awkward, hard to keep it straight. Looking good though, sweet cranks! Sent from my SM-G550T1 using Tapatalk

    Mint Chocolate Chip-A bike built for the Crested Butte Chainless World Champs (Finished)

    It is a lot of fun. Last year I made sure I was there to get my race ride on the shuttle and went mt biking all morning until they were bussing people to the top. This year will be similar, but planning on bringing our own rides, and some party favors, up in our own vehicles. Will be easier to...

    Nothing special CWC Hiawatha

    I stand corrected. The nos driver I have is for the blue band, overdrive version of the 2spd kickback. Found that out in Sutherlands repair manual. Sent from my SM-G550T1 using Tapatalk

    Box of junk

    Yeah, I am super excited about the Dana 3spd. Unfortunately searching for the driver, spindle, and crankarms... but its main pieces are new so whatever! If I ever come across those pieces or a broken one for parts I will be really happy :) Sent from my SM-G550T1 using Tapatalk

    Nothing special CWC Hiawatha

    Was wondering if someone may notice... I had it all ready to rebuild, pulled it apart, and found out its the wrong driver! I believe it is for the 2 speed cable actuated Bendix. My friend tossed it in the goodie box he just sent me, all I was expecting was the spring for the kickback and it came...

    Nothing special CWC Hiawatha

    I havent even begun to really think of how it will be built parts-wise or if it will be painted, stripped to bare metal, make an attempt at recovering og paint? I know I have a Bendix 2spd going into it, but thats about it. But I think this build already has a name, Nothing Special :)

    Nothing special CWC Hiawatha

    I know right! Was almost ready go start haggling on one of the CWCs for sale when this guy fell in my lap! The paint appears to be sprayed on, not sure the best method for removing it will be. Heard oven cleaner works, also brake fluid. The guys I know into RC crawlers use brake fluid to...

    Nothing special CWC Hiawatha

    Went to the Denver OBC Spring Swap meet saturday, sold some stuff, and didnt buy much which is good! There was a lot of cool stuff to be had, including two CWC frames for 20 each from different vendors that I had my eye on. Well, I just so happened to be in the right place at the right time, the...

    Insane: 1. legally considered as psychiatrically disordered; 2. lacking reasonable thought

    Here is a quick little vid I recently shared with another member. It was filmed in 2002, just after the bicycle racing season opener for the rocky mountain region in Moab, UT. A group of us got together with a local filmer/photographer that has gone on to become fairly well known in the industry...
