Still really nice, technically never "used" but shows some wear. one pic shows the only "bad" area on the chrome, I spun the wheel and took photos of the whole thing on both sides. No bearings, looks like they measure out to 1 1/8" for bearing OD. these usally have 10-12mm axles, the brake...
These are off of my Roadster. I had a friend (super-awesome guy, btw) find me a nearly perfect set so I can do a more original restoration.
These wheels are solid, but the chrome is shot. One is slightly pitted, and the other has about 80% of the chrome left. The original Rupp Trial tires are...
Well me my boy did a little work on his ruttman. Thought it was chrome cause some of the paint was missing and it polished really good. After stripping the paint it wasn't chrome bummer but thats okay. Had it powder coated his choice of color. I found this guy local only charge 90 bucks which i...
These don't pop up very often, so hopefully someone that needs one will get what they've been looking for.

Finally finished my Ruttman Spyder. Here it is you guys, painted in a plum crazy purple. The heart of this machine is beating with a tecumseh Hs50. The seat is all original grain and heat pleated material from the seventies thanks to "Mean Dean," all the chrome is coppered and then nickel plated...
I have some chrome forks that had VERY bad surface rust on the chrome.
I used Naval Jelly, #3 Steel Wool and elbow grease and it looks very respectable.
I thought it would need sandblasting and paint.
What can I do to keep the rust from coming back?
Chrome Polish?
Clear Coat...

Guys,
Just finished my first rupp roadster turned out pretty good. But I have a problem. I used chrome masters out of nashville to rechrome everything and they did an awesome job, but they do not do plastic. So I need to find a place to have the head light buckets chromed. Found a place here...
Started an new project today--my chrome Toad. Took the old engine off and began to clean up the chrome frame. A few nicks a scrapes but was amazed at how good it was. Cleaned up and added a set of fenders.An order from OldMiniBikes for tires, tubes, bearings and chain guard along with a Harbor Freight...
I have a Rupp Roadster. The wheels are in really rough condition, with severe pitting on one, and the chrome gone on the other. Having them redone is going to cost too much and finding a decent pair of wheels is nearly impossible -- then you have to pay an arm and a leg for them.
Does anyone...

I scored this chrome frame minibike roller at the Canby, Oregon swap meet on Sunday (05 October). I was vending and got there super early, like 5:45 and saw it right away-that chrome sure caught my eye! I was thinking it looked Lil'Indian-esque but didn't know for sure so I tried posting in the...
