    Need help installing 3spd hub

    btw you don't need to install that puley. just use a standard shifter cable anddo away with the clamps. i usually run mine inside the frame, so i always opt for the standard cable.

    Different bikes on radar... Value?

    Re: ladies higgins ID? i had the same bike. (tagged j.c. higgin's) gotta say it was one heck of a bicycle. (heavy/well built) it is a very upright riding position and would def. benefit from a laid back seatpost. i'd pay $75.

    Another "Roth" Build!

    depends on how your gonna do it. if your using a mold/release, i'd use the fiberous stuff (it's easier to pack into corners etc) if your covering a form, i'd use the cloth. i'd also pick up coloring and match the resin as close to your final paint as possible. it will act like a primer and make...
