    Adding front brakes

    If the front is in fact 135mm OLD, then the simplest brake solution is to use a 135mm rear freewheel/disc hub with a caliper mount like the one I fabbed for the Manta Ray shown below. I used a cut down Choppers US hub because it matches the look of the original hub.___cheap Choppes US hub...

    3 speed Sturmey Archer hubs for the Beast!

    Dr T, that hub is the reason I won't buy one of these bikes. It takes more impulse control than I have to stop at just the hub. By the time I'd get done with one of these 2-bills bikes, I will have more in it than a new Surly. :lol:

    Felt Hot Wheels 68 price!

    I'm not sure this guy really has any of the bikes listed. I have tried to get "proof-of-life" pics from him and have gotten brushed off. He was/is selling two models that are not even available to Felt dealers yet. :roll:

    Felt Bicycle Pics

    Nice score. You have one of the first forty Hotwheels 68 bikes produced. They are the only ones that have the three-color special edition tag. Did the guy give you the red Toy Fair car that was shipped with each of the first forty HW cruisers? That little car alone is worth a couple of a...

    Sanity check, about to buy a bike

    $1300 for one that is in flawless condition is a good deal. I would only buy it to display in a collection as they are horrible riding bikes as configured. As Cman said, put together a Basman if you want a great looking and comfortable bike. I have a mess of Felts and it's the Basman that I...

    Long cruiser handlebars

    US, the 3G Royal bars are sort of longish. I have them on my Basman with additional 2.5" added to the ends making the reach just right for my short self. Pic to give an idea of how long they are:

    short(5.5in) crank rideability?

    I'd go with the 44 tooth front sprocket. I have 5.5" cranks/44T front/22T rear on my Basman and it is a great combo for leisurely riding.

    Re: MegaRay (aka: Mongoose Beast) PRE-RRBBO8 I'm looking forward to seeing this one come together. Here's my work-in-progress take on a "Mega Ray". Started with a beaten to death 2006 Manta Ray.

    Niagaracycle.com's new format

    The new format is nice, but unless they improve their customer service when problems occur by their own doing, it really doesn't matter. That company is downright atrocious to deal with if there is an issue with an order. :roll:
