Was the Dyno Glide Deluxe only available with red rims ?

About 10 years ago the Rat Roders of the hot rod culture were using Gibbs on bare metal. https://www.gibbsbrandlubricant.com/ . Like BLO , it has to be re-applied , but is clear. My BLO has a brown tint. One advantage of Gibbs is that it can painted directly over , or so they claimed on the...

Welcome . Nice Stretch ! And, oh a tail gunner too , don't see that around here often.

I would change the brake levers too. For those that can not find a solution, there is a Problem Solver https://problemsolversbike.com/products/brakes/travel_agents_-_6416

The SA- - SC3 instructions specify only lube with light weight oil ( theirs ) , no grease. https://hadland.files.wordpress.com/2012/07/s3c.pdf . A member here reports 3 in 1 oil works. I never heard of brake snatching that it lists.

Congrats ! A versatile , rewarding bike to work with. I think the chrome steel rims are so much more outstanding on this bike than bland, modern , alloy rims.

Jolly !

This is what I came up with on a search of the winged image http://cuba8.org/en/home

Reminds me of the CBC Thunder Jet . Joe - AKA Yeshoney had posted pics here of his. May have entered one in a build - off.

Coat with vegetable oil and let soak for a day. Use a non abrasive sponge, like used for hand washing dishes. Rub with sponge, water, and dish detergent.

3-1/4" x 2-1/2" ??? What I found to be objectionable to riding this style pedal is that the footwear rubs the finish off of the center metal tube .
