Cool OCC Stingray pedals. ( at least that's where I usually see those. ) they grip the shoes well. Good choice for an offroader.

I believe your right , I thought these were some old Bmx peddles and they may be ., But they did use them on the OCC .
They do
Have a good old school platform look so that's why I picked them . At least there sealed bearings they spin smooth...

Got some goodies in the mail the past few days . Pick up these kenda K-Rad tires 26x2.3 a good for off road but also smooth on the pavement . This bike will be a mix of on & off road .

Any progress on Chief Hiawatha lately G?

 

[G-Matt]

No progress yet really broke down a double wall mountain bike wheel set had . Took out the 9 speed cassette & going to put a 3 speed coater break Hub .

I also was able to sell off some parts & stuff I had laying around the garage & was able to pick up some $$ for this 1976 beauty in great condition. I've always wanted a Brooks saddle.

Yep. Looks nice. Yours has more color than mine on my klunker from last August, "Desert Sky". Really like the Hiawatha frame!

There ya go Matt, that's just like putting a jegs sticker on a chevette. More power guaranteed.
