Re: Spaceliner re-do...

"...think Ill have to do something about that sprocket too... "

If you decide to change the sprocket/chainring/crank assembly, I have a Murray made one with 46 teeth that would look awesome with your frame. I' planned on selling it soon... The picture link is below- if you are interested, pelase pm me. Light rusty discoloration at the crank chainring joint, harware and bearings included. Very solid and straight chainring.

Here's the picture link:

Re: Spaceliner re-do...

Thanks for your offer Unchained, but I have one just like it in the pile somewhere :mrgreen:

Re: Spaceliner re-do...

Re: Spaceliner re-do...

that bike has had so many different looks its crazy! it is very cool. you are making me want to build my new one up! that bike used to easily pull 300-400 pounds of scrap to the yard. it was slow going though! when we traded it was my poor mans pickup until a scrap beam went into the rear wheel.if you want to get the rest of the red paint off try one of those spray on chemical strippers.thatbike came a long way from sitting in the yard down the street rotting away.i sure do miss it.the springer looks real good on it.very cool redo.
 
Re: Spaceliner re-do...

the springer really goes well with the lines of the spaceliner frame. just put one on a flightliner frame,and it looks much cooler than i thought it would! great lookin` bike! :D
