Shop cleaning: A couple of tools for sale

[Jon Kendziera]

A couple of tools I no longer need, but maybe you do:

1)  Alex Meade Flat mount disc brake fixture.  I built a couple disc brake forks with this before deciding disc brakes are not my thing.  Maybe they're your thing?  

Comes with front and rear flat mount adaptors
Front 100mm long x 19mm diameter dummy axle
Rear 142 mm long x 19mm diameter dummy axle

all the details about these here - https://alexmeadetools.com/?product=disc-brake-modular-fixture

$210 shipped anywhere in the continental US

2)  Cobra Cycles Toob Bender.  I used this for bending 22.2 mm round chainstays and it worked great.  have the 9" radius tool for this. 

If you need other bending tools they are available from Joe at Cobra.
The only item I don't have is the little bar that holds the phase/ alignment checking tool. I've never used this feature, which is probably why I promptly lost the bar.

I'm interested in the disc brake adapter. Can you tell me more about the dummy axles? How do they work with thru-axle dropouts? Those dummy axles don't seem to thread into the dropout like a I would expect, how do they work in practice? 

Best,

Hans Jatzke

Hans,

The fixture has sold, but to answer your question regarding how the thru axles work:   The stepped portion of the axle inserts into the dropout.  This is the same on both the threaded and non-threaded dropout.   For the threaded dropout the axle rests on the thread inner diameter.   As most of us have learned the hard way, fixtures that thread into anything near the brazing area are best avoided as the flux has a way of getting everywhere and hampering removal.   Here are a couple of photos:
