Re: 40 Year Old Bike Shop picked today Someone recently posted a Wanted to Buy for one of those Sport Shifters, I think it was CWC.

I hope this helps. The fork legs pivot on the front bolt. The forward movement pulls down on the concealed spring. The big rubber bumper at the bottom is usually deteriorated. http://i1125.photobucket.com/albums/l58 ... 81a498.jpg

I had an uncle who traveled with a carnival in the 1920's riding his Indian motorcycle in one of these bowls. I have a photo of him and a bunch of other guys on motorcycles on a Goodyear tire sponsored Gypsy tour. When he started courting my aunt (my Mom's sister), my grandparents forbid them to...

Re: Bike Shop Bought Out I would be interested in a pile of rim strips if you would like to sell some.

I've been trying to avoid buying any more bikes, but yesterday I fell off the wagon and spent a big chunk of change. Purchased a nice original 1966 Schwinn Fastback, early 1900's Napolean wood rim and a Schwinn Deluxe Cruiser 100th Anniversary reproduction. I'll post photos later.

Appears to be a Colson/Evans. Looks complete and original. Would be a nice addition to most any collection.

I have one that is brand new, still in the original blisterpack. The packaging is a little worn from being moved around. I might be persuaded to part with it.

Re: Storing Spare Rims Great idea! Now if I can just find about 50 broom handles I'll have enough pieces to do all my wheels.

21 inch rim plus the height of the tire should be 24 inch.

Nice bikes, but I'm getting worried you are going to run out of room before you get up here to pick up this Monark! lol

I think any of the 3 tab cogs will work. I have a number of them in different number of teeth if you let me know what size you are looking for. I have lots of the snap rings and can provide you with those also.

Sorry, doesn't work for me. I've done it like a hundred times and no go. I went back and edited my post and you can look and see the results.

Nice piece. They were standard on the Hiawatha Arrow. I had a really rough rust bucket one a few years ago.

Thanks for posting my photo, I wish I could figure out how to do that instead of just posting a link.

Here are the 20 inch covers I have. One has the decals on it, the other 3 pieces are plain white. Each has a reflector attached to the surface which could be removed but would leave 4 small holes. [IMG]http://i1125.photobucket.com/albums/l583/crassly/randor.jpg[img]

The New Departure tool is fort aligning the dics for reassembly. Not necessary, but makes the job easier. That is a chain tool, one side pushes out the pin, other side pushes it back together. PM sent.

I have a set of plastic wheel covers for 20 inch. I can post a photo if anyone is interested in them.

They are many different cable lengths and the length of the outside cable sheath varies also. They do make univeral cables you cut to fit and then attachment the end piece. If your lbs doesn't have what you need, I might.

I don't have any personal experience, but from reading my bike books I was under the impression that the Higgins 3 speed was a clone of the Sturmey Archer and all parts would interchange.
