How do you like those turn signals, and are they fairly bright? I looked at those and thought about them for my bike.

Intergrated are they expensive?Do you have a photo?I've seen the turn signal's build in the front mirrors before.
I see your selling your wheels you get new ones?

I am not sure what I am doing wrong here. I was trying to show some pics of the blinkers Widow has, on my bike up close.

Are those front signals from the same source as the rears, and do they fit the stock holes reasonably well because they look great.

WM,
I just got a set of Piuma's and also got a set of ceramic bearings (i drag my heap).

Dave Conforti of WorldWide Bearing supplied me with a double row bearing for the cush drive saying that he'd heard of many failures of Marvic's single row bearing. This is about 1/4" wider than the single row.

Will you have problems with yer cush drive bearing??? Probably not, but just something to look out for.

BTW, installing the double row cush drive bearing required a very little lathe work on the cush-drive bushing; no big deal.

They do not fit in the stock holes. However you can buy the kit to make them work from Huge Industries. The kit comes with both sides and is 19.99.

Marvic wheels and bearing failures...

HUH? I just bought a set of Marvic's. That many failures part doesn't sound to good... Do you know what causes them to fail? Is it the wheel design or the bearing design or both?? Sorry if this is a dumb question or one that has been answered already. I haven't got my wheels yet, so I haven't had a chance to really look them over. I just ordered them last Friday.

My heap(LOL. good one.) is pretty much a drag only bike. I guess I'll be spending some more money...

Entropy, do you have Dave's contact info?

Thanks,
Ryan

osti33,
Dave Conforti @ World Wide Bearings: 973 575 5229.

If you get the double row ceramic, and pull out the cush drive bearing you'll see a 2 part bushing. The outer bushing needs to be shortened. No big deal.

I really wouldn't go to ceramics just because of a potential problem w/the cush drive bearing. You could moniter it carefully and if it started to show wear, then replace it. Maybe you'll never have a problem.

You gotta remember, the folk Dave talks to are all going to extremes putting in ceramics in the first place. The failures he sees may be a result of extreme stress, eh???
