Pick up a cable cutter at a hardware store, far cheaper. ;)

WTB: Cheap tri/aero bars that have two-bolt clamps and fit 31.8 mm handlebars. I need parts for a project.

You are putting those on an older Schwinn mountain bike with a too-low saddle and knobby tires to ride around Lake Calhoun, aren't you?

Nothing wrong with trying to blend in...

Looking for an old school burley trailer. The type that folds down flat, and which clamps to the rear triangle. Quality unimportant. I had one and foolishly sold it at a garage sale for $20, since I had a nicer kid hauler (since stolen).

Kid no longer uses a trailer, but how am I suppose to carry kegs of home brew now?

Hey all - im looking for a (beater) 1 1/8" threadless steerer fork for MTB/26" with cantilever studs - preferably something older ie not suspension corrected, or 80mm correction. Threaded 1 1/8" would be ok if you have a headset also. Price is an issue, so less than $50... more like $10?

Also looking for a nicer 1 1/8" threadless headset in black or red. Cane creek, Chris King...

Thanks!!

EDIT: removed the request for a Crank Bro headset.. Thx OMGMRJ for the heads up!Added wheel size.

What size wheel?

How short is the headtube? I have a 26" MTB fork, 1 1/8" threaded, with headset, but the bike it came off had a short-ass headtube.

If it fits your bike you can have it for less than $10.

If it does not fit your bike you can have it for even less than that.

(Then you have the headset and can open up the request)

I will take some measurements tonight.

Ha, right, that - it is 26"/MTB
the frame is tiny, so Id bet yours would work. Its some off-brand 15" (or even smaller) DJ frame. Nice big text "SHOOTER" on the side. Its dumb.

that would rock bat56! PM inbound for contact info and location.
