Today we continued to prepare the frame for painting, which we will start next time. We also took apart the coaster hub, cleaned it and rebuilt it. We did the same with the fork mount parts. SF and his dad are making a little welded repair on the chain guard. We found a nice vintage handlebar and stem, but we still need to find the following parts:
- one chrome spring fork (1" tube) GOT IT!
- two 26" chrome/unpainted aluminum rims to accommodate 1.75 tires or bigger
(we're hoping to recycle those from an old mountain bike) FOUND!
- two 26' rim strips FOUND!
- two 26" tubes FOUND!
- two white wall tires (26/1.75) or creme balloon tires (26/2.35) GOT IT!
- two grips GOT IT!
- one cruiser chain GOT IT!
- one 22.2 mm seat post GOT IT!
- one brown spring cruiser seatGOT IT!
We will look for vintage/recycled parts as much as possible.
