Nils’ Cycle Fab Long Haul Trucker Cargo Bike

Be it a tale told through road grime, dust, dents or a augmented addition like a cargo retrofit. Nils has had this Surly Long Haul Trucker for over a year and a half. In that time it’s gone through various permutations with the documented version being the most current, obviously. A LHT is already a pretty versatile bicycle, yet Nils wanted the ability to carry more weight, lower and honestly, just wanted to try something new.

Alibaba Group. Restoring Vintage Bicycles from the Hand Built Era. I was definitely skipping class when Shimano introduced its splined Octalink cranksets and bottom brackets back in 1996.

Restoring Vintage Bicycles from the Hand Built Era

Since I have always been a fan of square taper bottom brackets, I saw no need to trouble my mind with this “new” system, a system which Shimano has long since replaced with outboard bearings and a right side crank arm with an integrated spindle. The Octalink design was meant to supply a better attachment to the crank arms. But, with this shallow V1 model, it is unlikely that Shimano achieved its objective. The V2 model has much longer splines, and its ISIS competitor, even longer. Ridemonkey Forums. What's best isis bb?

26x4.0 Tire On A 17mm Rim

I had some time to kill, so I went to the garage. Thought I would share: The narrow rims bring the tire width down to a little over 3-1/4 I thought maybe it would fit my 29er that I am trying to sell. The Velo ORANGE Blog: The Thing About Goosenecks. By Igor The purpose of a stem is to connect the handlebar to your fork's steerer.

This can be accomplished by using either a quill or threadless type stem. A quill type stem uses an internal expander to wedge the quill into the steerer. Alibaba Group. Lovely Bicycle!: Small Wheels and a Belt Drive: the Moulton TSR2. Despite seeing plenty of Moultons, old and new, over the past several years, I cannot get used to the sight of these bicycles. The "spaceframe," resembling an elaborate truss bridge, is like a puzzle that both intrigues and frustrates me.

I don't know why, but that is the reaction I have to these bikes. Briefly riding a Moulton two years ago brought me no closer to forming a more defined impression, and it took me until now to work up to trying it again. This is a custom 20-inch hot rod electric bike. Matt Shumaker really made a name for himself a few years ago by developing high performance electric bikes that used the high-end Astro Flight RC motors.

The distinctive feature of his drives were the chunks of billet aluminum that were cut into beautiful and well-designed brackets, which mounted these motors to various bicycle frames. You can see his monster yellow trike here. Matt had calculated out a lot of variables and optional configurations during the first year he was developing hot rod RC drives for E-bikes. The high-end Astro motors he used have the ability to run at very high RPMs, and to access the extra power that is waiting there, you have to use quite a bit of reduction to get the RPMs back down at the wheel speed. Something that Matt did on his monster yellow trike is to use a smaller 20-inch driven wheel,which simplified several aspects of the design process, concerning the amount of reduction needed.

Hello guys.I asked a friend of mine that comes back from US to Italy without baggage, to buy and bring one of those Moongose massif with him on the airplane....so it was a really cheap deal.Now the bike is here in front of me ( and even if I always declared my unlike about fats, I have now a 26" and this stupid 20" toy) .The bike frame looks good and well gusseted (I would add some more, in the critical areas if you ask me, for adult or electric use).

I recently have acquired the desire to do some touring on my fat bike but don't like the idea of destroying my expensive knobby fat tires on long stretches of pavement that connect the off road sections, so I decided to try mounting a set of 26x2" semi slicks on the 80mm rims of my fat bike with 2.4-2.7" Qtubes. Same tubes will work for the fat tires and semi slicks so no need to carry different tubes. The Idea is to carry the tires in my pack, and then throw them on when I hit long stretches of pavement. Tires I used are Serfas Drifter's, Schwalbe Big Apples would work awesome too I suspect.I was skeptical of it even working, but to my surprise it is actually pretty awesome.

The beads seat nice and firmly and at around 30 psi or so they roll very nice on the road, pretty fast, and super comfortable ride due to the high volume from the 80mm rim. A couple of Hooligans.
