I'm Just Husky

[hammer mechanic]

I scored a bunch of industrial bikes last year. Among them was a Husky HD-120.
I've been working on it off and on so I finally decided to document my progress.
At the back of the bus.

How the bike looked this morning

Over the winter, I rebuilt the wheels with new spokes and a Bendix Tandem coaster brake hub with Coaster Culture mod.
Before

After

I took this stem and bars from an old Korean built mountain bike

As the bike sits right now.
It was a wrestling match to get the chain guard and the rusty kickstand off. I stole the fork and crankset from a Jamis Earth Cruiser step through.

Next up is strip, prime and paint.

Love those frames!

That's a rad bike already! Love the Slingshot stem, love the Earth Cruiser fork (especially the graphics), gonna be a fun ride. I'm a fan of that Heavy Duti at the front of the bus too, great bikes right there

I cleaned that Heavy Duti up and moved it along. I only have 3 more now.

The Husky continues to interfere with me working on my buildoff bike.
I had a little parts pile to throw at it today. New headset, bottom bracket, chain, grips, etc.

Seat tube was pretty crusty

So I treated it to some cylinder hone action.

My version of the garage door shot:.

Kink 44. Might be looking for a 42T

Bendix Tandem hub. Basically a Bendix 70 drilled for 12g spokes.

Brooks B72, gnurled cromo seat post, schwinn exerciser clamp. No name slingshot stem and bars. Grips from Husky.

I had to stack a few extra washers rather than cut the steerer tube.
