1896 Goold brantford

!896 Goold Brantford Model B   I got this bike up on wheels that  i bought last fall at auction . i was missing a pedal and a very good friend turned out a pedal for me using the original for a pattern . Turned out super in my book. Bike is very original with new wood rims.

1890's Canadian Frame Maybe?

I found this 1890's frame at a 2 day auction last fall. I was there on Saturday and bought some stuff but couldn't be there Sunday. The frame was up on Sunday so a friend bought it for me. I picked it up on Wed this week. I have no clue as to what it is. The frame has unique dropouts, 2 3/4 aparts as does the fork ends have same measurements. The frame also has a nut on top rear stay for what, maybe to tighten the seat post as it does not have a tightening bolt. The bars are octogonal shape and same as the stem, both are 1 piece from what I can tell. No bolt to tighten it.

Supercycle Date

I recently picked up this old Supercycle. It says made in England. Were these made by Raleigh? The serial # is XA 34632. Does anybody have any info as to what year it may be and who the manufacturer was?

Vintage Wheels Rebuilt!

Hi! Just wanted to show off my wheel rebuild. This is part of an ongoing project to restore a late 60s SCP Cruiser for my girlfriend.

I used the original rims and hubs, but replaced the old spokes with new stainless DT Swiss spokes and nipples.

Here is the old wheel in teardown:

Here is the old and new hardware:

Green Supercycle Wedge, single speed?

While riding on my Marauder, I often get stopped by people who had one before and sometimes when I ask them which one they had, between the single speed orange, the 3-speed yellow, or even the orange Wedge, they reply the green one.

I've been poking around, I know the Marauder was only in Hugger Yellow & Hugger Orange, then there's the Wedge...

All the Wedge I've seen on google are 3-speed in orange (& red?) and while looking, I dropped in another forum, one was mentionning a green Wedge as the single speed version.
