Patrick -- I have what I recall as being a very lightly used Formula locking that is yours if you want it, to help resolve any leftover karma from my earlier freewheel tooth miscounting incident. Also, in my experiences fixing cracks and wear in musical instruments, you can do a lot with wood

Thanks for the glue tips. I may do that -- I do have some good wood glue. But then again, I may just install the TA crank with a 50 t ring since I have a second spare set of arms sitting around. Does anyone know the standard spindle for a Pro 5 Vis single and a 120 OL rear? I use 113s for my Rivs,

Your other Riv's are single/fixed, correct? If so, chainline should be the same I believe for 120/126/130, with 126 & 130 having more spacers on the axle. I think it's 135mm specific SS hubs that may require a different chainline. David Chicago On Sunday, September 13, 2015 at 11:21:46 AM UTC-

I would strip any finish off the back side and lay a layer of glass or (heavens forbid ) carbon fiber cloth into epoxy. West GFlex is strong and allows some working time, 5 minute is usually a bit thick and obviously has short working time. squeegee the epoxy into the cloth and get good contact

It looks fixable with wood glue. It need to clamped and requires shaped wood cauls. On Saturday, September 12, 2015 at 4:58:28 PM UTC-5, bertin753 wrote: > > 1. I need a standard fixed, left-hand thread lockring. Would prefer to > trade for a fixed cog; have 14, 15, 16 and probably others. Fail

Cauls are shaped wood pieces, in this case curved to suite the shape of the chain guard. They go between the steel clamp(s) and the chain guard. They distribute the forces of the the clamp and protect the chain guard from being dented by the clamp. Done in this way, the repair will be stronger
