A long long time ago. 75 Dan Gurney Mono
« on: October 31, 2005, 05:41 PM »
I picked up this frameset on a "permanent loan" basis from Perry Kramer. Gonna need a crowbar to get it back from me..:)

   

Been hanging on to the hub for years for some reason.  Now I know why:
Thank to Sidehackguy for helping to modify the hub to make it fit the dropouts.

   

Schwinn "diamond" crank, Gurney fork, Chair pedals, Araya steel dimpled rims.  Yamaha bike bars (I think).  Messinger saddle.  Heavy duty spokes:

   

Just kidding on the crowbar remark.  Bike is all yours whenever you want.  Thanks PK!

It's cool having Reilley here with the real roots of BMX! Makes a change from all the dick and fart jokes (and DPs) ;)

Thanks all.  PK was a class act back in the day and continues to be so.

It's a drum brake similar to the ATOM  and appears to be kinda old by the freewheel that is on it.  I had to slot the axle in order to make it fit through the dropouts.  It is not a coaster brake, the arm that attaches to the frame serves the same purpose as the one in a coaster brake though
