As you know the Velodrome at Bloomer Park is run by volunteers and
donations. The rental bikes are used my many people (lots of new
riders) and get hard use. Many of us have also borrowed parts or the
whole rental bike on race nights when something on our own bike has
broken.
To help keep the fleet of rental bikes going, there are some parts
needed. The rental fee for the bikes does not come close to covering
the cost of repair. If you have some spare parts to donate to help
fill the list below, please bring them with you for Saturday's Work
Day at the Velodrome or on your next visit.
- 1 1/8" threadless stems for the Felts
- Some drop handle bars for above
- Saddles (these get beat up and broken when people hit the deck)
- 15 tooth 3/32 cog
- 16 tooth 1/8 cog
- Square taper cranks 170/165 (does not have to be a track crank, as
long as it has a 48 or 50 chain ring)
- A rear wheel, clincher
- 700c clincher tires and presta tubes
- A couple of Shimano lock rings
Thanks,
Bruce Carlson
