Not a rat although it's a little ratty for its age.
I think I'll try and find a front spring seat for it too. Can't afford a brooks so I'll have to find something else.
Anybody know what, if anything, goes here?
I think the rear hub is trash. It was very loose when I looked at it but he had his BIL "fix" it before I came back to buy it. Looks like I'll need a chain or at least drop a link or two. I may use this as an excuse to get a wider wheel set. There was a set at the LBS that were wide they said 1.75" but they looked really wide compared to these which are just over 1" wide.
I had sometime yesterday so I went to the motorcycle salvage yard and found these. I think they are new but for $12 I don't care. My plan is a triple clamp fork and BMX stem. I thought the cork grips looked pretty cool. I'd like to get some brown leather, but don't want the chrome ends. I also might try turning some wooden grips on my lathe.
