TT I don't think that will work, if you move the weight forwards don't you increase the tongue weight?, and I can't move the weight any farther to the rear...... at 59#'s tongue weight for the 75# test, I think I am SOL..... Tia

Land Around here there is nothing but DG and sand, with abundance of rocks, narrow tires are a death sentence when traveling around here. Wide tires are necessary or you are pushing the bike to go anywhere. Tia

Gets On those type of locks, there is 2 different lengths of locking shafts, the are the shortest and the older ones are 25 mm long. I use the older long ones for steering locks on my E bikes. Ebay has both styles.

RFTH Thanks for the information, still looking.... I just looked up recumbent bikes and they are all 3 wheeled, won't work for around here, needs to 2 wheeled like a standard bike. Tia

As an update, the steel got here, made a pattern to fit the trailer frame, attached it to the frame, fits and works, attached the rear frame/wheels, looks good. But, I was not satisficed, revamped the shock locking plates, for better strength added several bolts for more security, looking...

Hey Guys and Gals The better half wants to start riding, she has tried my 2 heavy weight hunting bikes, and does NOT like the weights, and afraid of falling over. I have seen a bike she might like, but want to do some research on it. I don't the proper name for it, but it has 2 wheels, and you...

BH Thanks for the info.

BH If I can ask a dumb question, How do you tell a Bot and their spam posts? I am not sure what a Bot is etc, and know nothing about this plastic box........ Tia

S777 The medical type swing arm scale is the only one that will go high enough for the testing etc, I am attempting to attach the trailer to the bike, as the OEM skewer did not work, it was too short. I am making 2 new shock mounting plates, so I can add a second wheel, just waiting for some...

It was also carried over to the school, it was called "The board of education", 3' long and full of holes..........,if you smart, you never wanted a visit, all thou several seemed to enjoy it........

PC The rear stays on my bike are .870" diam, and from what I can tell, either one of those mount might work. I'll have to cut off and drill and tap the base to allow the bobbins to fit etc. Still checking......Tia

PC That is what I am attempting to find out, the U bolts are the hold up, they have to be large enough, to fit the chain stays, proper attachment and strength.. for towing the trailer. I am not to concerned about the extend bolt, I have a lathe and mill and can adapt to the required thread size...

PC That seems to be a very good Idea, as I am not making any headway attempting to find the correct axle type of attachment. Robert axle said it don't have a suitable axel for this model of bike?? Or the other route would be replacing the hub with a 12mm axle and then there is the the costs of...

I have an Commercial, OLD Blue Home-Lite C-52 saw with a 24'blade and 24" Bow Bar, thumb oiler, that I used as a "Lim R" for a logging Co in the late 60's,(all the logging company's, used this Brand of saw), it has been thru several bars and dozen's of chains, but it's a man's saw, must weigh in...

The only thing retarded is "ME", when it comes to the operating all this new electrical stuff.......lol Back to regular programing...............

Thanks Guys I'll try carefully getting the end caps off, there is a small tip of the axle showing and it measures 10mm dia, but looks to step up to a larger unk dia at the start of the end caps. I need the spec's on this axel, so I order/change over to the correct length/diameter, solid...

Foo Here is a photo of the rear hub, (Top Hub) 5mm QR type 190mm in length. I have not found any threads, hidden keys, set screws etc, used for removal for the center axle. Tia

Hey guys This is a drawing of my rear hub, I need to get the axle out for measurements, so I can get the correct Robert axle for my trailer installment, the OEM axle is a QR type 190mm in length. I am attempting to figure out HOW.?????? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, Tia

I got the trailers on Friday afternoon, working on the 2 conversion shock back plates, I haven't decided on which way to go, waiting for the steel to get here. More later, Tia
