Well the huffy cranbrook has evolved. started out as a stage 111, then a EZM Qmatic,then a grubee4G, back to a stage 111 single speed and now to a stage 111 with sick bike parts shift kit SWEET.
Still working on the chain stretch adjustments . Kit wasn't too bad to install. The rear wheel axel got pulled out of the derail side several times no matter how tight I got the axel nut. I included a fix[see picture] that seems to be working so far.The shifting and torque would pull the wheel axel out of the drop out. If the bike had motor cycle style drop outs like the felt cruisers or the grubee GT1 or 2 bikes this might not happen. Anyway for now the fix is temporary untill I get a longer axel that will have more space for the threaded eyebolt
