The last thing I need for the Apollo is a front brake. It has to have a pretty good reach, because I converted to 700c. Let me know what you got. I had a Tektro front brake but the fixing bolt wasn't long enough, so it's gotta have a long fixing bolt as well. Let me know what you got!

It's going a fixed gear, and I'm only running a front brake. But to address my original post, it looks like I just don't know what I'm talking about. The problem is that the brake I have has a recessed bolt and the holes in my fork aren't big enough for it to fit into. Is there such thing as a long reach dual pivot brake that is not recessed? Or, what is involved in drilling the hole to make a newer brake bolt fit inside? I'd like to avoid doing that if possible.

Wow, I should've known better. After all the things I've learned there, I don't know why I didn't check that out before!
Drilling the fork is very easy, but there are other work-arounds as well. In this, as in everything, Sheldon Brown had the answers.

I have also arranged to buy a bike in Ohio that I am thinking of picking up in connection with a family visit, as yet to be arranged... perhaps within a couple of weeks. If the frame I have is something you can use, you can have it for a donation of whatever amount you choose to my LiveStrong ride. And depending on where you live, I can drop it off.
A little coincidence... A couple of years ago, I picked up another 62 cm frame... Corky.

This one isn't that level of bike, but I think it would be a good rider as it sits. I'll take pics along with measurements.

Excuse my ignorance.......but what size clamp? Bottom pull I assume? I have a HUGE box of changers that I really have no intention of using. I'll send you one for the price of shipping if I have one that will work for you.

I need to replace the crank arms and peddles on a 1980 Schwinn Traveller, with a square tapered bottom bracket. Somewhere along the line the originals got stripped. It originally had a double. I am not trying to match the original, just something functional. I am only going to run with the smaller ring, so ideally it will look good with a single ring. Also a matching chainring in 39 tooth or smaller.

I am looking for a Shimano 600 rear hub 126mm, 36 hole.
This is the one marked "sealed" but the sealing is realing just and expanding plastic fitting on the nut,

Bikes: I used to have many. And I Will again.
I am in need of a low cost new or used Shimano 7-spd HG Freehub body.
It could have the threaded splines or without. Just discovered the Exage freehub that came on my recent Cannondale M300 purchase, is destroyed. The outer shell wobbles loosely....never seen that before!
[RESOLVED. Thanks to Monogodo!]
Also need a good condition Suntour or Shimano stem shifter. Man, these are rare. I would like to run drop bars instead of flat bar on the Cannondale MTB. But I need a workable shifting solution. This old frame uses 1" quill stems.
Oh yes....one other thing.
A good Mavic Module 3 27x1" polished finish rim. Late 70s to early 80s era vintage. I used to have a set for my Normandy high flange hubs. But one got lost.
