Re: [TheThinkTank] wheels
by Kevin Dwyer 16 Feb '23

Louis- It sounds as though you have a serious problem with rust and wheel failures. If you are presently a service organization, moving to industrial production (especially as a collective) creates a variety of hurdles related to capital and organizational structure. The Mondrian collectives in Spain have been successful as collectives engaged in industrial production, but they have strong government and societal support. You may look to them for structural inspiration. With regard to the underlying problem: (mostly) cheap wheels that are not serviceable, perhaps there are other alternatives? Here are a few I came up with: 1. Partner with a bicycle co-op/collective in the (south) western US where rust is not an issue. In the past, there have been postings to this list of collectives with excess bikes and parts. I’d imagine that you might be able to get a container or rental truck full of just wheels, if you put the word out and were patient. 2. Buy unthreaded blank spokes in bulk. DT and China/Taiwan manufacturers have these available and with a $130 Hozan spoke threader you can make serviceable spokes. (Don’t forget that even nicer spoke threaders will take some time for the cutting and threading) 3. Buy lots of different sizes of cheap straight gauge spokes. For less than $1000, you could go on Ali Baba and buy a stock of nipples and every 14g spoke length available. Restock as needed. 4. Visit the DT facility in Grand Junction, Colorado where they make spokes. You will see the spatial and equipment requirements for spoke making and be better equipped an nd informed as to the requirements for such a project. Best of luck in your project! Eager to hear about your solutions!

wheels

Louis, Personally, I think trying to become a spoke manufacturer is a bit over ambitiousunless you had a metal working factory. If you could by full-length spokes to threadto length, a Phil Wood machine was over $3K last I knew. It seems to me your biggest hurdle is getting a wholesale account. Most distributors wantto see a picture of a brick and mortar storefront and some credential and or web-presence. We use J&B importers for our "bread and butter" supplies, but also have accounts with QPB andrecently Shimano. Yeah, wheels are the Achilles' heal of used bikes, especially rears. I usually start any wheel workwith hitting each nipple with Tri-flow. It also helps to have an adjustable spoke wrench, oftenan antique tool in my experience, although we have a Hozan, so they might be still available. We also has some spoke wrenches that grip three sides of the nipple, sort of, that work wellon stubborn spokes. Hope this helps. Mark HoffmanBikeNB.orgNew Britain, CTUSA

Wheel (components) making : tooling and methods
by ronde d'effort 15 Feb '23

15 Feb '23

Hello dear and esteemed Fellow, I hope this finds you well, I'm writing hoping you afforded and wished to share with the community on wheel-making tooling, methods, and on distributors akin to selling such to collectives. Particularly, we aspire to be more autonomous in making or substituting this most demanded component of bikes within our capacity. For this purpose, we would benefit from advices on lacing methods and bench-size machines to make wheel (parts) that respond soundly to physics, and tighter budgets. We think of machines like Morizumi or Phil Wood, which would perform the operations to make spokes from a stock of stainless steel wire. Or even nipples and maybe rims. For cutting and rolling threads but also, head swaging, elbow bending and reducing wire diameter of spokes by rolling or drawing with acceptable results. Should we also think of methods for using wire with minimal fixtures and metalwork astutely. We don't mean to dream splendidly for the B-Choppe, our basement in Montréal Qc, where we share and uphold anti-oppression ethics and relationships first. Varied wheels size arrive with seized spokes (from de-icing salt) as we contemplate shortages and difficulty to order. Above all in current times, we felt relying on ourselves instead of (very unsteady) supply from far manufacturers to be wise and exciting. While most parts wholesalers refuse selling to us, arguing «unfair» or «too stringent competition». As we seek sustenance and relationships, not profit, but would not mind funding the shop by providing with value. I think this could be technically feasible, some operations could involve re-purposing body-actuated tools used in other trade (especially for diametric reduction of wire). Ideally be combined in dedicated gems like those WheelFanatyk offer with discernment and expertise, I find. Expanding beyond our capacity, If you happened to know organizations whom had summarized knowledge in metallurgy and modeled practical setups, I feel some of us would be excited to know. For instance, which alloy (or actual wire) to use, which forming process to perform (drawing or rolling, at which temperature), which annealing to enable and senseful equipment to build economically for that matter. As a member of a free shop, I'm open to reconsider spokes-and-nipples for other building and truing methods (materials). What I'd be happy to share if we ever came to sound and thrift results. Thanks so much for reading my best Second Language from french. I hope this is senseful and above all, that you are well and holding your values. Thank you so much, with our kind and highest esteem, Louis Atelier B-Choppe Montréal Canada (I hope this is right, as the purpose of the ThinkTank seems to be a «discussion on our Discussion» while I read technical matters on it. And did not see our current preoccupation making a subject on the Wiki. However, I feel a discussion stemming from this post shall benefit more on a Community repertoire where Subjects can be searched in fields like «wheel» ; which the ThinkTank does no longer allow. Suggestions welcomed, thanks). Envoyé avec la messagerie sécurisée [Proton Mail](https://proton.me/).

Bike New Britain (CT, USA) operates with a very tiny all-volunteer crewof three volunteers. We're all ex-shop mechanics with an average age of about 73 years. but it's been a struggle and we're only open for a couple of 3-hour days. COVID definitely threw the monkey wrench into things, but since we all had COVID this past year, we are learning to live with it and all the other diseases floating around out there. We're trying to move away from the public's conception that we are just a bike repair/used bike shop.(Hard to get listed as something other that "Used Bike Shop" with Google Biz!)We plan on doing a membership basis to try and cultivate new volunteers, with initially a free membershipthat would allow access to a DIY night to be determined. We envision fee-based membership in the future,as overhead keeps climbing. We just paid a bit over $1600 to Am. Specialty's LAB insurance program! We have had little in the realm of organized rides and hope to develop that as well as Smart Cycling classes. We do an annual Rodeo with the police dept., and have partnered with BikeWalk CT on several Septembertour events. We also supply local agencies with bikes for their clients that need transportation help. I am personally optimistic for the coming year, but only time will tell. I often wonder whether long-term viability is possible without a paid staff person, but getting into paid personnel is a bridge we don't feel we could cross at this juncture. We do offer stipends to LCIs to help with planned SC classes. Mark HoffmanBikeNB.org

R U There?

Looking at the collectives website, there seems to be no activity in the group since early December. Is everyone busy planning for 2023 season? Hopefully, we’re not all losing interest. For myself, I’m going to be looking for ways to strengthen the bicycle community in Omaha.

Hello Think Tankers! Front Street Community Bike Works in Coos Bay, Oregon (USA) remains up and pedalling and always lurking in the background of this list serv that we appreciate so much. We are very small (<30,000 person community) and relatively young (4 years). We live in one of these rural communities with very little cycling infrastructure. Still, we have gotten amazing support from community members. Thank you for the reference to the other list servs, Alejandro. The first item of interest I found was the cargo bike report from London. We are in the midst of a push to get cargo bikes working in our community. Right now there is a brewery (Seven Devils) that uses a hand-crafted sidecar cargo bike for local keg delivery. We hope to complete fabrication of another front-load cargo bike soon and find other businesses that will use our service. We would love to hear of any other experience with start-up cargo bike delivery business from this list. Park Your Truck - Ride Your Cargo Bike!
