36 is very common on kids bikes and 44 on cruisers. Sent from my GT-P5113 using Tapatalk

I changed the gearing on my old Schwinn Hornet from a big 46t front to a smaller 42t for easier pedaling. Are there any sizes in between 36 and 42? Dont think I have ever seen anything. I have seen a 40t with a hex center on a childs bike. Sent from my GT-P5113 using Tapatalk

So I put a nice wide cruiser seat from a Huffy on my old Schwinn Hornet. Squeak, squeak squeak. Sprayed the springs with Armorall and slick furniture polish still squeakin, Any advice.? Sent from my GT-P5113 using Tapatalk

Its a Hornet. I was able to clean up the chainguard some. Appears to be about 1952 according to chainguard style. 54s were different and dont see any 53s listed. Sent from my GT-P5113 using Tapatalk

Well some good news. Somebody swapped rims. These are standard not Schwinn so I am mounting some 26 x2.125s right now.The old tires said Western Flyer. Now that my tire problem is solved I am keeping it. Could it be a Typhoon? Faintly looks like an "oon" on chainguard but not certain. Sent...

Got this out of a barn yesterday for 10 bucks but what is it? Has flat forks with truss rods. No springer.Its freakin heavy as crap. Thinking about putting some tires on and riding as is. Sent from my GT-P5113 using Tapatalk

I found this Riprider at an abandoned house today. Back caster wheels are worn down. Are Ripstick wheels the same? I can buy Ripstick wheels for about 4.00 a pair shipped free on Ebay. Sent from my GT-P5113 using Tapatalk

No I think the Marx has plastic tires. I like the Marx because its vintage. It also has a hand brake I believe. I am worried the old plastic will be brittle and start cracking and breaking. We will probably look at both before buying. He is 6 and too small for a green machine that his older...

So we wanna buy a used big wheel for grandson and found 2 choices.He dont care about color. Vintage original Marx or modern RF.Not famillar with the Marx but I know RF plastic stuff is pretty tough. The modern day "big wheels" are suppose to be a copy of the originals but are flimsy junk...

We been looking for a big wheel for the granndson and got offered this. What is it.? Its not an original Marx. Looks pretty sturdy and vintage. Sent from my GT-P5113 using Tapatalk

So I am thinking about getting one of these for the grandkids. The first pic is the one we are thinking about. I thought all these were about the same. Why do some have lots of plastic some dont?. Even frame styles are different.The one we are looking at looks "naked" but I actually like the way...

Let me know. Not restoring mine just wanted to make it whole. For 10 bucks it sure rides great. Better than my beach cruisers. Sent from my GT-P5113 using Tapatalk

G Matt if yu ever wanna get rid oof the tank and chainguard let me know. Sent from my GT-P5113 using Tapatalk

I bought one of those Bell tools from Walmart once. Fell apart in my hand...junk. GOT IT. Used a punch and vise and it went 4ogether fairly easily. Will get me by hopefully. I bought some Ebay links and should get in a wee or two. Sent from my GT-P5113 using Tapatalk

Dont have a breaker. The reason I need a master is because I tried reuseing a link yesterday and the clip thing came off. Guess I sprung it when I robbed it from another bike. I did take an old chain using the vise and a punch was able to remove a link. I am gonna see if I can use the vise to...

Yes I know those kind. I looked very close at several junk kids chains and all links look identical to me. Sent from my GT-P5113 using Tapatalk

I buy packs of 20 count master links on Ebay shipped from China for less than 3.00 and never had a problem with them. Right now I dont have any and need one. Do the Walmart kids bikes etc have master links that I could rob one from? I looked thru some of my junk kids stuff but cant identify a...
