Thats more like a speed carb,,I have not had much luck with the one on my Grubee,,I would get the basic one like this,,these work great on all my kits!
I finally broke out the palm sander and removed all the paint from the front wheel surface that the brake pads rub on. I hope this will significantly extend my brake pad life.....
I also found a triangular shaped handlebar bag that will hold the necessary tools needed for emergency roadside repairs. The bag was in the clearance/damaged bin at a high dollar bike shop here in town...it had no price tag on it. After several minutes of high level conferences amongst the staff, they decided that they'd sell it for $6. Sold.
Paul, what do you think of the Fat Franks at speed (25 mph+)? Are they squirmy? I have some Schwinn/Cheng Shin cruiser tires from Walmart (now on a pedal only trail bike). They were fast and cushy on my happytime bike, but "walked" a little in corners, and made squealing noises. On the pedal bike at 10-20mph its kind of fun though. I feel like a kid.
Do the franks have any puncture protection? They seem kind of expensive.
depends some on the geometry of your frame, but sometimes you can dish your wheel off to the right, then space your axle with washers back to the left till the chain clears - dishing the wheel moves the tire away from the chain, then shifting the axle moves the tire back to center of frameHey guys, my chain is rubbing on my tire and i don't know how to fix it. I do not want to buy a skinnier tire but hoping there was another way. it is a cruiser bike
First (easiest), make sure you centered the wheel in the frame when you put it back in the chainstays. While tightening the axle nuts (or quick-release, if that's the case) the wheel loves to go off center, so watch for that.Hey guys, my chain is rubbing on my tire and i don't know how to fix it.
