[LRELL]

i have a nexus 3 speed coaster brake wheels set i'd like to put on my swweeties new old 41 roadmaster without hurting it , can any of you wiz guys tell me what parts i need to change i'm not up on skip tooth stuff so i don't know what i need to find . thanks ya'll

just get a rear cog for a nexus 3(should only be about $5) that has an even tooth count and grind off every other tooth.
then pull the snap ring that holds the one you havent converted to 1" pitch and swap them.....
or you can always just swap out the front chain ring for a 1/2" pitch one(which would be fairly cheap as well not to mention if a chain breaks it wont cost a fortune to replace)
good luck :mrgreen:

I would lean toward the second method stated, give the "skiptooth" stuff an oil bath and put it in a box for safe-keeping.

If you go the new chain ring route Harris cyclery has some for a decent price. http://sheldonbrown.com/harris/opc.html (about 1/3 of the way down the page)
