and I'm not even sure what year that was. 2011? Taiwan? I've heard of
Toyo and Wisconsin Hunqapillars but I'm assuming that first batch was from
Taiwan.
I have four different Hunqapillar brochures, one of which
Hey y’all,
Just out of curiosity... How do I know what year and location my Hunq was
manufactured in? Any particular details I should look at? Is there a Hunq
manufacturing timeline somewhere?

I've got an old Atlantis w crazy chain slap. I can't look at a stick on
the road without the chain slapping around. The gears are always slipping
on the rear as well. Drives me nuts.

I think I bought these from Rivendell decades ago. Never used; dirt is from

pair of old mtb or some other large and grippy clip/strap pedal.

With the clutch on, shifting the chain is tight moving onto the big front
chainring of 52 while the rear is in certain positions, plus, to remove the
wheel the clutch needs to be turned off anyhow, so I just left it off.
Next ride I'll test it again. The largest practical rear is 28 on my
setup.
Looks like some beautiful work there. You'll keep us all posted here, yes?

After waiting for what seemed like a very long time, the Hub Area racks
were restocked a while back and luckily I snagged one out of what must've
been a small batch that were available as they sold out within a day.
My request is about the bags that originally accompanied this rack. First

So according to the drawing , *if* there's a 2nd hole for greater tension ,
it will be in the Outer Cage Assembly (part 10) ...which would allow the
cage tension spring (part 9) to be wound up more.

we are still riding tandem, thanks for asking! We're primarily on mixed

I would suggest replacing the spring with from an XT or XTR. You can get a
new spring for $5 or so.
When I had too much slap and occasional thrown chain from an LX (which
worked fine otherwise), I switched to an XT derailer and the problems
disappeared. I assume it's mostly the chain tension
Ed, that's a spectacular bike -- and now that Spectrum has closed, a lugged
modern tandem like this is more rare than ever -- very few builders will
undertake that job, and those that will will justifiably charge a lot more
that hat this one will cost someone used.
Did you guys replace it
Hi Ken,
I'm curious. Why do you leave the clutch de-activated? Are there downsides
to using the clutch?
Thanks

Patrick that looks great.
Nice coupling of the two arcs of the toothless outer ring/guard and the fd

altogether the limit screw wasn't enough? I believe you regardless.

Funny you should say that but I was thinking the Wald folding basket would
be interesting particularly as I'm sure you could come up with an easy
mount/dismount system with a trip to the local Ace Hardware. Certainly not
boutique PNW custom pricing either.
I've been toying with this for a few weeks:

new style of basket
