The Auto Mini has a 2sp kickback gear, very high quality Sachs. Look at hubstripping.com to overhaul it. These hubs are treasured.

So thats why it's making the ticking, I've had a 2 speed kickback before on a bigger bike, those rims may end up on my nice one with the lights since the rims on that one are bubblingThe Automini's are alloy to, I wonder the age of it, and the damn seat pole is stuck and folders have long seat poles too.

I think it rides very well, the bake tires was all wierd but when I over inflated it then released some air it fixed, and yes thats a load of free bikes, one load out of three that day, around here it's amazing what people throw out, I get nice old road bikes, 3 speeds, and the odd time these little folders, and my big old 3 speed is what brings it all home. well also sometimes my friend drops bikes off like today I came home and there was two 3 speeds in my yard.
