I am selling a cruiser style columbia tandem with full fenders and rear rack. I replaced wheels and tires last summer but didn't ride it much. It has a water bottle holder on the front handlebars and matching New Belgium bells. It is clean with minimal scratches on the paint and very comfortable. I am in little village and can show it on the weekends or weekdays after 7. See More

alex replied to Active Transportation Alliance's discussion 'Happy Bike to Work Week!'"My job is giving 15% off anyone that shows their helmet at checkout. Is there somewhere else I can post about it?

Velo storm stories, tell us your misadventures of being caught on bike in the storm. Chicago is riddled with storms year round and this year has shown us some of the harshest mother nature can dish out. Tell your tale...
Ron Maskell replied to alex's discussion 'Help reattach my Brooks badge'"What sort of rivet is it? If it just a bifurcated (split) rivet, just poke it through the hole and spread the rivet using a screwdriver and flatten it with a pair of pliers or multigrips. Might be an idea to put a washer on the rivet when it comes…"
notoriousDUG replied to alex's discussion 'Help reattach my Brooks badge'"Once again; not a pop rivet so it does not require a gun unless you feel like spending mad cash and buying a pneumatic rivet gun.
It is a regular rivet, smack it with a hammer.

Bernard Joseph Hannigan replied to alex's discussion 'Help reattach my Brooks badge'"Any shoe repair place could fix that in an instant...Keep them in mind for any other leather bicycle needs, my guy did a great job on the rotted straps on my '74 Raleigh Sports saddle bag."
Rene Lawell replied to alex's discussion 'Help reattach my Brooks badge'"For now I might suggest a panhead bolt lock washer and slim nut. so you dont loose it until you get a riviet gun.

DanGer 8.2mi replied to alex's discussion 'Help reattach my Brooks badge'"leave it off and save 1/10000th of a gram. =D"
wig [ isaac ] replied to alex's discussion 'Help reattach my Brooks badge'"do it the old school why. use a nut and bolt . it looks real sharp. "
alex replied to Bernard Joseph Hannigan's discussion 'Your thoughts on criterium's?'"any rides like that in chicago? I would definitely participate in that
"
notoriousDUG replied to alex's discussion 'Help reattach my Brooks badge'"It's not a pop-rivet it is a traditional rivet so no 'gun' is needed. All you need to do is back up one end with an anvil, or bucking bar, and hit the other end with a hammer."
