Bikes and Parts for Sale

Occassionally I'll have bikes and parts for sale. The bikes are only for local sale in Portland Oregon. If I've located a bike that's a real collectable treasure, then perhaps I'll ship it. Parts can be shipped or picked up local. Only actual postage costs are charged.

Parts for Sale
- Proper Brake Cables
  NOS beefy cables!
  
  Modern brake cables have a smaller diameter, and give you a mushy brake feel when you run long housing, like on Krates, 3 and 5 speed Sting-Rays and Fastbacks, 3 speed Middleweights, the Breeze, Racer, bikes like that.
  
  If you're cabling up a rear brake, use this cable for firm brake feel. (Front brakes usually feel fine with modern undersized cables.)
  
  If you need to re-do your cables, and want to retain that solid brake feel, these are the cables you want!
  Run them in new lined housing, or run them in original Schwinn un-lined housing. You will feel the difference. Metal end crimpies included.
