    Thumb shifter for a Nexus 3 speed?

    Here's a pic- it's in perfect shape and has index shifting just covered in bondo dust. They do (did) make a 3 speed thumb friction shifter- cafe cruisers from the 80's and back. I can disconnect with cable attached and send it to you this week- let me know.

    Thumb shifter for a Nexus 3 speed?

    Dr. T I have a nexus 3 speed shifer that came on my latest project. I put suicide shifters on all my builds so you can have it. I'll head out to the garage in a few, take a pic and send it over. Pete

    Additional Bike Pics

    I came across this photo online and wanted to see detailed pics of the bike, mainly how the springer is attached to the top of the steer tube and if it is). The builder is John Youens, not sure if he is on this site- I searched for more pics with no luck. Noticed the picture isn't showing up-...

    St Petersburg Florida

    Anyone reside in the St Pete area or someone familiar with the area? We will be flying down for a week in February and hoping to get local knowledge on the biking and other sports- stand up paddleboarding and kayaking to the parks. I found a place that rents bikes by the hour, but want to...

    Earthscraper

    Re: Centrix Earthscraper Pics are of the same bike just different stages of the build- just like you the design went through many phases before concluding on the final.....which is still to come. Last two are of the frame with paint stripped off.

    Earthscraper

    Re: Centrix Earthscraper Centrix cruisers- can't beat a project foundation that you can pick up cheap. Here's pics of my centrix stretch project- cut and moved back the seat tube, connected a budget mtn bike suspension rear and bent some apes to make it reachable and comfortable- I am leaving...

    Kudos to max210

    At the end of September Max bought a fork from me- shipped it on the 1st and USPS took control, as you can see below it took 3 weeks to go priority CO to CA. Max hung in through the ordeal and happy to say it finally arrived on the 18th, 9 days after the expected delivery date. He had every...

    I'm in Platt Park- just south of Wash Park, anywhere near your location? Don't do much with the DCRs, we try to cruise every weekend on bikes or in cars.

    Homebrew Denver CO

    With the snow starting to fly it's a good opportunity to finally send out an intro. Been on the site for almost a year and probably my most visited and favorite. Started building bikes a few years ago and get approached by people everytime we ride- created the company Homebrew Cruisers not to...

    Need ideas for the Electra Cruiser.

    I wanted a ride for my work commutes, have a roadie and mtn bike with slicks, but wanted a something with style. Took a cruiser frame, neck and bars from an old Diamond Back BMX, SE seat and 3 spd Nexus. Fun to ride with forward style and taking me back with the BMX riding feel.

    Rattle can or Powdercoat?

    Here is a pic of my son's bike- he's 11 and rides (treats) it like his other bikes, it's rattle canned and takes a beating. After a cruise or a trailer haul to ride outside of Denver a simple touch up and it's good to go. There are shops here that if you can wait for the day, they will give you...
