rear brakes

[Sledge Hammer]

Ryan's second photo tells you all you need to know, so pulling mine back down.

I think we should put yours back up there.  Looked much cleaner than mine.   I am still trying to clean the red desert sand from this bike.

Aw, you talked me into it, even though I really think your second photo shows it better than anything I was able to get. I had to really contort myself in my junk-filled garage to try to get the flash to put the photons where they were needed.

Found this thread, did some research. I don't have a Jerry Turner in my database. Did you buy the bike with the brakestay on it, or possibly buy the brakestay from another source (Cruiser Customizing, etc.)? In any case, the brakestay should not have failed. If you will send it back to me, I will replace it with an updated version. In the past we used 1/4-20 stainless machine screws, now we are using 5/16-18 hardened steel.

I bought the bike from Bob Barram I beleive he won the brake stay rod at a MOOTMAG, I was able to back the broken bolts out and replaced them and I am still able to use the rod, but beleive me the heads of both screws were broken off.

Dobie will hook you up either way. He stands behind his products I know firsthand

E-mail me through my website and give me your mailing info. I will send you a new unit. I would appreciate it if you would send the old one back so I can inspect it.

Yep Bob Barram was awarded the brakestay rod at a previous MOOTMag.
