I’ve got to get on with my life, I suggest you do the same with yours. We are unable to ship to certain locations due to restrictions. If you have any questions, please reach out to customer service. Below is a breakdown of the abbreviated locations.
At Kona, we’re all about the freedom and empowerment of the bicycle. We’re still populated by a staff of keen, active, impassioned cyclists. Just a dedicated group of cyclists making bicycles for people who love bikes-no matter if that love is new or long established. Cycle Therapy is located now at 215 West Meeker in the amazing downtown. This distinguishes our shop as a place where the service does not end with the sale.
I reached the point where I had to spend some more money on this project so I rode my Allant over the bridge to Duluth. I did have the proper freewheel puller in my tool kit to remove the freewheel, but I didnt have a bench vise for leverage. I did, however, have a big wrench and the seatmast from my Bike Friday Pakit that worked great as a cheater bar. A casual observer of the work in progress would think that I was building a unicycle. I was worried about rabies so I went to the doc and got the shots. Four shots over fourteen days and the doctor said I’d be fine.
I did have to swap a big spacer on the rear wheel from the drive to non-drive side and re-dish the wheel. There were just enough threads on the spokes to do this. I also replaced the flimsy rubber rim strip with a double layer of gorilla tape and I repacked both the front and rear hubs and trued both wheels. The Schwinn World Sport was a not fancy but decent sport touring bike of it’s day. The lugged frame was made in Taiwan for Schwinn and the main triangle is 4130 ChromeMoly tubing. The internet help me decode the bike’s serial number and told me that it was made in 1984.
Anyhow, Alpha-gal Syndrome is a weird-ass disease. No shit, something changed in his blood chemistry and now he can’t eat meat. I thought it was about the damnedest thing that could happen to somebody. And then I got bit by something that makes Nick’s dietary restrictions look like nothing.
In 1975, he founded a bike shop in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. His specialty was building touring bikes for trails and dirt roads. In 1978, Kent began building his own custom frames for balloon tires with multiple gears and cantilever brakes. Kent’s invention of the “Moot’s Mount”, an adjustable cantilever brake stud patented in 1980 led to the development of the Moot’s Mountaineer bicycle. This bike went on to win the first NORBA Off-Road National Championships in Solvang, Califonia.
Then it looks me right in the eye and I belatedly realize that this dog is a wolf and I figure I’m dead. The other day I read an article on BikeRumor! About a Kickstarter kent electric bike project for a biomotion taillight. This makes sense to me, and for years companies have made pedal reflectors and reflective ankle bands with this idea in mind.
