RESTORATION TIPS - MISC:   Sears Adult Tri-Cycle posted by: Henry G. on 4/2/2006 at 12:59:35 AM
I recently acquired an old Sears Roebuck Adult Tri-Cycle that needs work. I was wondering if anyone might help me find a parts manual and info on re-assembling the chain "differential" and any other info that might be helpful. It's my first tri-cycle resto, though I have experience with two-wheelers.
thanks,
Henry

RESTORATION TIPS - MISC:   Rollfast headlight posted by: Mike on 2/18/2006 at 11:48:35 PM
Greetings all,
Just found (quite literally) a woman's Rollfast bicycle that seems in remarkably good shape. Lots of minor rust on the chrome, nothing serious there. The only thing I can find close to it online is a 1959 men's model. Has tank and headlight extends past the front post. (Not sure of the terminology here.)
Qestion is, is it possible to repair the plastic lens bezel for the headlight?

Mike
