Tom Shoeniger of 4130inc Bikes Ressurets Broken 1891 Eagle

Ace frame builder, Tom Shoeniger of 4130inc.com pulled more than handful of rabbits out of the hat to get the Eagle ready for the road! He took a wheel that was so trashed, all three of us (John E gave me a ride) thought that the Eagle had flown its last mission. But he kept trying different approaches and miraculously, he got it round and strong again. It's still not ready for the road tho because he also found about 20 hairline (some bigger) cracks in the rim that I will have to silver solder after I get the spokes back in.......

But WoW. JohnE and I were more than astonished!! And we're still talking about it, even......
