    Felt fork headset needed

    Any of these semi-integrated headsets available at Amazon ought to work: Headset #1 , Headset #2, Headset #3. The $16 one is the best of the lot. Good luck.

    New Hotwheels 68, Save it for the next generation or...

    LOL! Not dead yet. This bike has never been for sale, but anything I own can be had for the right money. It will take crazy dough to pry my hands off of this one.

    The tires are 24" x 3" Felt Thick Bricks and the rims are 50mm Felt cruiser rims. This is what it is looking like right now with 24" x 3" Felt Berm Master knobbies:

    Widest rear wheel on a Felt?

    A three inch rim with a Thick Brick or Fatti-O tire will be the max. You will definitely need to use an offset cog on the rear hub with that combo. Here is a pic of a Felt Chief that RRB member, Jandroart, customised some time ago:

    Gichigami Growler Grabber

    Gichigami Growler Grabber

    Very nice!:thumbsup: Gotta love those Columbia Thunderbolt\Newsboy frames. One thing I'm noticing about the front brakes, is it appears as if the caliper mount may be upside down. The brake pads are making little contact with the disk. It looks like flipping the bracket over will bring the...

    Two Way Tandem

    This build ought to be cool. Get a couple of jack shafts and gears in there so the rear facing rider doesn't have to peddle backwards. You could also do a retordirect chain drive on the rear and accomplish the same.

    2014 MONGOOSE MASSIF 20" FAT TIRE

    I got a laugh out of the mattress tag on the seat. Of course I ripped it right off like an old bandaid.

    New Walmart Fat Tire Bike coming in a couple weeks

    My Massif finally arrived today. It needed the typical box-bike regreasing and adjustments. For what it costs to assemble just a pair of wheels and tires from Choppers US ($350+), this little fatty is a steal.
