picked this up at the weekend.
norco city glide with a 2 speed sram automatix rear coaster hub. 700c wheels and plenty of clearance for wide tyres and guards.
so far i've removed the levers and calipers, stuck a wald 137 on the front, and just bombed around on it at every opportunity!
going to change the seat and grips but i've not decided what to go with yet...
also change the front chainring bashguard thing as it looks a bit shit.
dead pleased with the way it rides! big grins! -

got a similar issue on my triumph - 75mm drop approx on the back but the dual pivots i've just bought are only 73mm...
i tried making a drop bolt from two pieces of thickish ali plate but it just bent as soon as i applied pressure.
i'll try the shaved washer trick next i think. am i right in thinking you need to make two? one for either side of the mount plate? -

Interesting saddle. Any idea what it is?
it's the original saddle with the ruined old vinyl covering binned.
there was a plastic shell underneath which i planned to cover with leather - only the piece i bought wasn't quite wide enough so i decided to trim sides... you don't sit on the sides anyway so i figured what's the difference?not bad comfort as it's sprung underneath, but it's not properly fixed to the rails so it has a tendency to squirm about a bit!
This is beautiful.
thanks!
@akm hi. any chance you know what model and year the forks are from? cheers.
