seat tube pulley

Question: did Fat's originally come with plastic or metal pulleys mounted to the lower seat tube for bottom pull front derailleiurs? see pic

My fats have all metal ones.
Cheap model

Then I need a metal one. The only one I have found to order is plastic. Does anyone have a source for a metal one?

You could try getting hold of an original Avid Rollamajig I'm sure they had allow pulleys with bearing's.

here is what you are looking for...gool lick finding one of these...anyways...its got a sealed cartridge bearing...i'm sure you can find a bole that will mount the wheel to the fat..
Good luck!
Keep the rubber side down!

Thanks for all the input! I scored one off that sinful eBay. I appreciate it.

Hello Tony, don't know if you've got a bolt for the pulley but I seem to remember that it's an imperial not a metric thread on my yo. Make sure you put plenty of copper ease on it so it doesn't seize in.
