Ditto on the adapter, I’m running a 32 up front with a 9 tooth on the back. Not the best set up so I’ve been playing with an internally geared rear hub and try to change it up. Do I see that you put an adapter on the headset to allow for a 1 1/8 stem too?
Yeah! Affirmative on the stem adapter. I did chicken out and put a front brake on, in case I reassemble/repack the hub incorrectly or the chain breaks.
I’ve often thought it would be fun to get a bunch of like minded fools together for a coaster brake challenge http://www.atomiccycles.com/coaster.html
These bikes frequently pop up on kijiji and are easy to modify. Depending on space constraints/spousal understanding, I’d like to pick up a few more of these to lend out to people!!
I’ll play too. This is what I’m riding most of time right now. Super fun to be able to go bang around town with when this waiting for good trail conditions. Feel like I’m finally getting the hang of it too.
Ozonyz Cannibal with a front freewheel set up. Hydro rim brake out back, disc front out front. Got the bike pretty well dialled in now, it took some time to get the set up right but it’s been totally worth sorting out and it feels awesome!
It’s new bike day for me! Massive upgrade from my entry level hardtail in every single way. Just finished tweaking suspension settings and other little things. Need to hit some trails asap. Might try Shubie tomorrow or Monday.
