    70s 10 speed in vintage photo

    From about 1975 or 76 in my city. Think the 10 speed in this photo is an early Fuji? Tell me your thoughts. The outdoor shopping mall here was created in 1972 and torn up, turned back into a city street in 1988 (after most of the businesses closed.) The photo just surfaced on a historical FB...

    1945 Elgin by Junknutz1975

    Looks good man! Thanks for the tour too, you know I love the stories behind these places and New England is full of them. Myself I work in a mill on an 1867 industrial site. Good luck in the BuildOff! --Rob

    What frame is this?

    You got a Worksman INB. The world standard industrial bike. Made in NYC. Fairly expensive, tough as nails, and still being made. All parts available from Worksman Cycles. I ride one at work with the same big Wald basket. Great bikes and worth whatever you paid for it.

Of course if you want it for a young kid or smaller teen, it'll be...

    Need Help IDing Frame Please

    I can't verify what the serial number means, but my 1980's INB, my work bike, is built identically to yours. My dropouts point more toward the ground at a 45° angle, but that's about the only difference. Definitely the large Worksman frame. These used axle adjusters like a motorcycle for the...

    new project, don't know what it is

    I'd say so far everyone's been correct about this one. It's some sort of Schwinn straight-bar frame, and while it's tough to pin down to an individual model, it could be one of these: http://www.trfindley.com/flschwinn_1961_1970/1961_07.html (Tornado in the lower left of that page.) Find the...
