It is 26 tpi , or "british standard cycle "   same for the axles ,   common old school bicycle parts  as for the early threaded fuel tank cap

Thanks! Would you know any reason why a modern 26tpi crown race and nut I bought would not fit? The original spins right on, The race is pitted and I need to replace it. I bought a 24tpi, 25.4tpi (1mm), and a 26tpi and none fit ???. I guess the diameter might be slightly different. I bought 1". Do you know where I might get the set? I've tried to get stuff from Wayne but I think he just forgot about me. It doesn't have to be original. I have notice that the original has fewer and large balls. And the new sets all has more small balls. What's better (heavy duty)?

Anybody know the thread pitch of the steering stem? I've ruled out 24, 25.4, and 26.

Hi. That one is sweet! It's got a Harley Davidson gas cap I think. I heard the guy was making them with HD caps for a short while. It's also got the nicer forks in my opinion. Do the forks have brass knuckles?
