Went for an off road ride today. The Cranbrook and an older Huffy ATB that the G/F son rode. Was wondering how the newly rebuilt cruiser would handle the off pavement excursion. Gearing a bit high to climb the hills, but down hill it did quite well. If I had the stock Cranbrook today, I...

7hp???? I'd say fast. My neighbor is doing 39 to 41 with a china 2 hp engine on a way heavy cranbrook.

Those bikes are a trip to ride. Takes a bit to get them going, 3 speeds and you wont hit 20 mph at all. Then try to ride a normal bike right after and it will take a wile to get used to ride it again. A normal bike that is. I think Sheldon Brown described it as a waste of energy to go...

I need the tool to pull them, so I can clean and service the hub and cog.

Pictures from alecw35 post, the 2 and 4 peg freewheels. This is from a huffy road bike, place 2 peg onto freewheel, snug the axle nut on. Get big wrench and break loose. When its broken loose, remove the axle nut and then finish the spin off. And here is the freewheel remover I'm...

Yes, the hand cycle, he has planes for electric bike as well. Adapt electric so he can keep his hands free to enjoy the ride. Well he can keep his hands on the bars instead of the crank. Image of the hand cycle added Or go electric on a delta wolf

Had a spare frame and no coaster rear, so added some parts and came up with this.

I found a frame, not as cool as yours, but I'm going to give it a try. My start.

It's now ride-able, just a few loose ends to tie up here and there.

Well I just measured a bunch of Canti and the Canti like frames, 38 Elgin, Space Liner, Murry, Coast King, Huffy Cranbrook and a newer unknown red frame with Budweiser on the frame. To keep the measurement and the different forks from the final equation. I measured from the center of the rear...

I Like, I have several of frames like yours to try my self. Very Nice, I do Like

Thanks, now its black. Better look at the gussets, in the frame are the gussets from a rear suspension NEXT bike where the rear shock hooks up to in the frame.

Working on a bare frame I picked up from some where. I have no coaster 26 and no desire to return it to stock configuration. So, front forks from a next mtb, bars from an old woman's Murry 10 atb. Since the coaster wheel is being changed to a single speed free wheel BMX cog I had to weld in...

Take your stem bolt and screw it into the other side of the forks and tap with a hammer back out towards the top. To do that you have to remove and tap in the steer tube from the bottom. You might want to use a different bolt where you can hit it harder with a hammer so you dont ruin the...

Same here, my neighbor who has a DUI just stopped in. Huffy Cranbrook did 41 in a 35. Ya, he has a speed sprocket.

My neighbor is a PD and he says that they keep the bikes for 7 years, locked up out side, Evidence reasons.
