zoolord Posted October 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 (edited) It's bugging me now.. i'll make one this week if i get time. I have always got a bike in the house in bits so this ain't a big problem. my sons grass track bike is mostly in bits all over the house.

zoolord Posted October 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 On to the very dodgy looking swingarm.. it needs welding, it is bent and it need new bushes. I will be seeing someone at the weekend to straighten and weld this as well as the frame, as i want to get it painted and start rebuilding it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nigel dabster Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 the pivots wear eccentrically, and by bushing the pivots will really help with the brake action and effiecency (sp). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bultoboy Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 the pivots wear eccentrically, and by bushing the pivots will really help with the brake action and effiecency (sp). just to make sure i have this right. where the arm goes through the brake plate put a bronze bush in and mill to fit the operating arm?
