huffy cranbrook
- Thread starter glenz

the only problem i have with my cranbrook is the engine pulls the axle outa the watchamacallits loosening the chain, i dont run a tensioner
Those whatchamacallits are called dropouts.
I would tighten the nuts just a little more, you don't want that whole works coming loose on you....it holds up half the bike.

ya no matter how hard i tighten it still pulls out am gonna build some adjusters like a motorcycle has,pretty simple to do
Looks good,did you have any problem fitting the rear sprockett?
how are the breaks working for you?.....I may get one of these
my sprocket is true maybe your rack is helping, i do have this rodded just a bit punched out muffler and rejetted for altitude and for rmeloy the brakes suck but i live in a town without paved streets so the gravel can sneak up on ya much better on pavement, the main drag is paved. but still the brakes leave a lot to be desired at 25+ mph, later frank
yes, the rear sprocket was a little challenge. not too bad tho'-i had to open the hole dia. up with a dremel tool, also,i had to squeeze the rear fender with a wood clamp to clear the chain-not too much sacrifice tho' considering the bike only cost 86.00. i've got a gal that wants me to put a kit on a new 2000.00 custom bike from italy! i strongly advised against it, but she wants to do it! no, i'll do another cranbrook tho'-it looks good,its cheap,and it rides really nice-not bad for a total investment of 230.00! have fun!!! p.s.-i also added a front brake,if you don't i think you'll burn up the little coaster brake shoes real quick!
