    shimano 333 shifter question

    This has probably been posted before. I have a shimano 333 3 speed hub with coaster brake and i need a new shift cable. Im not having much luck finding one at any lbs so i was wondering if a nexus 3 speed shifter would work? Isit indexed the same?

    2000? Schwinn Pro Stock 24

    Fresh find and something new to play with. all original down to the tires. I'll post some better pics soon. Just got it home. Very beefy aluminum frame with ram-air behind the seatpost, should make me go faster

    finally found a set of Schwalbe Delta Cruisers for the Raleigh Sports I found a few weeks ago. the official name for the color is coffee so that would make this a latte but it looks more like rootbeer

    Typo?

    I'm not too knowlegable on vintage bmx so I figured I'd ask. Is this a typo? Optimistic seller? Or do they really go for this much? http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/bik/2452395351.html

    Head scratcher

    Ultra rare? Maybe the western flyer factory went on strike and schwinn took uo production? Maybe the seller saw this guy coming from a mile away? http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/bik/2288440985.html

Also sometimes the cranks will go about...

    I made a facebook page for local so cal stuff. Post events, pics, pics of events etc, stuff for sale wanted or trades, whatever you want as long as it's in good taste.

    I was checking out some parts at my local bike shop and found a great chro mo layback seat post.

    tornado build

    I found a 1957 Tornado to build for my daughter's birthday it has a rattlecan paint job that looks great from 10 feet but not so great close up. So far I have the wheels torn down and hubs polished up and rebuilt. The sprocket and bars are also shined up nicely. rims sanded and primered...
