I have been working on my cranbrook for a few months now and thought I would make this thread based on my progress here are before and after pictures
No the fork isn’t bent I do see that you mean though. By any chance do you know the year of this bikeIt's hard to tell from the angle of the pics... but it looks like the fork is bent?
Thank you where would the serial number beThe serial number has the year in it... Should be some letters then the first two numbers are the year... SHC ? ( YY) serial number... If it's newer than '04 chinaman made if it's older American made Huffman I'm not sure
If the engine runs good the bike will fall apart and if someone says the bike lasted with no problems you know there engine is crapi went on about a 15 mile ride with a friend today, overall went alright. About 2 miles in I noticed the bolt for the support on my rack had fallen out and my support was hanging so I zip tied it, next I noticed my screw for my air filter vibrated out so I had no air filter luckily I was on pavement mostly, then last but not least I hit a pothole and my tailight caught my tire and broke the lens, bent the assembly, and took the paint off the bottom of my license plate the bike ran great, there were many stops because the chain on my friend 03 Suzuki rm125 kept popping off due to a bent axle causing the sprocket to move every mile or so. By the end of it I still had a half tank of gas and blisters on my hands because I forgot my gloves.I got this picture when we pulled over View attachment 112216
I too have a lump in my back tire I thought I had a flat earlier because of it and my license plate rubbing combinedThe serial number should be on the bottom bracket under the pedals... I went out for a ride and have a lump in my tire... Never again will I buy tires folded in a box...
It isn’t the tube exposed more of a stretched spot in the tire it has gone down within the past month of riding these tiresA lump in the tire is gonna explode loudly
I'll just move it to the front so it doesn't lick at the chain... I can watch it better when it starts to split... Then It will become a liner at some point... It's a thick kevlar bell innova tire... Just where it's pinched from being tied up in the box it's let go inside... And it's peppered with holes from goat heads.... I wish I could have gotten them down to the canvas but they still have 90% of the tread... And it's cold and I'm lazy...A lump in the tire is gonna explode loudly
