Guys,

I'm trying to help a friend out by pointing him in the right direction for a good bike shop in the Northridge, CA area. I'm not familiar with the area so I don't know what shops are good options for bmx parts. I'm not concerned with vintage parts or things like that, I'm simply looking for a good selection of new school bmx parts and supplies.

Thanks,

Tony

Hey guys,

I found a couple of Campagnolo hubs last weekend at a swapmeet. One Tipo High Flange and One Record Low Flange. The price was right so I picked them up. I want to use the high flange on a current project, the other I will probably sell.

My problem is that the hubs have hollow axles for quick release skewers. I guess I need a solid axle to run on a 26" cruiser.

Does anyone know of a solid axle that would be a comparable swap? I was told that if I could find another hub that had the same size bearings, that I could pretty easily swap out the whole axle setup. Does anyone know what hubs might work? Does anyone have an axle that would work they want to sell?

You can see the hub below. Any information to help with the axle swap is appreciated...

This is not mine...I came across it on Craigslist.

Someone needs to build this thing up...

I saw that there were two different citric acid powders sold on Ebay...One industrial the other food grade.

Which one would be best for a rust remover?


Food Grade = ANHYDROUS
Industrial Grade = MONOHYDRATE

Anyone know which one is better?
