Finding Parts
Hey Everyone,
I know i'm doing a forum no no right now, but I have done quick searches but considering I have a few questions I figured I'd put them in a post together.
First I'm trying to find replacement fenders for my bike. The fenders don't need to be true vintage, they can be refabs or something, its more of a look thing for me. Now of any websites?
Secondly, Considering this bike will be used on a constant basis i'd like to replace all the bearings but how does one find new bearings, i'm going to assume that the sizes will be different than any new bottom brackets and headsets, axles etc.
Third, I believe that my front axle rod is in fact slightly bent, to the point where is does cause some resistance while rotating. Where would i find a replacement, or is it worth trying to true it?
Thanks in advance.
