I think I have a rim in mind. The Ryde Andra 40 is one of the few rims rated for total weight up to 180Kg (~400 lbs) and the Disc version is even all black. While it does detract a bit from the C&V look I think it will look nice with some cream/whitewall tyres.

More pictures of today's disassembly and rust treatment:

Before and after of the drum brake assembly. Note the mising locknut that prevents the axle from unscrewing while riding.
EDIT: Wait a second, did I knock it off the table?




I know a punch and hammer are an acceptable alternative to the original tool... but maybe not to the point that the original tool doesn't fit anymore.


How does a spacer become warped? (Left one)


Gunky and worn bits
