I have been in the garage all morning cooking up a few sets of freshly powdercoated Walsh A-Arms. I used to do some PC work on the side for others, but NOW I remember why I hated doing it. Girlfriend was complaining about the smell too
I told her these are much better than her co-workers christmas cookies
These will be going on my matching race and practice bikes for 2008
Pics will come as soon as they cool down.
On a side note I found a source of the teflon lined spherical bearings that are over HALF the cost Walsh charges. They want $20 each..x 8 = $160
Picked up 8 for under $60. If someone wants to know the part numbers I will be more than happy to share.

Mike, did you ever get those to fit?
The part number is COM12T. Try sourcing them at your local bearing shop for less but online they are about $9-10/each.

Timbo Unicorn Stroker 467 and Falicon 468.
I have never run the Falicon and after Tim's pics of the crank pin it kind of has me worried
The Falicon bike will not see much use.

Yes, I did. Come to find out I have honda upper arms and I had to switch to honda spindles and hubs. I had to get the elka bodies shortened to the length. But now everything is good now. I hope!!!!
Thanks for the part #, My I wish I could afford the fox shocks.

Have you found a source for the upper and lower heim ends. I know the uppers are 7/16 and the lowers are 1/2.
