No really...it is all that, and less!
So, I'm attempting to participate in my first bike show ever...and my plans fell apart when my BO bike ran into tire fitment issues. I have bikes I'm taking for the survivor class...but, wanted an entry for the custom class.
Starting with my fairly sedate oldified Giant-built Schwinn (note the 'American' chainguard, a tad bit of irony there
)...
First step was to lose this little tag...because the show is for 'vintage' bikes, and vintage evidently ends at '89 (...wow...)
Thrown on a set of apes!
...and a reproduction 'Cruiser Deluxe' tank...
I may swap tires with that slug behind it tomorrow as these are near shot...but, that's about it.

edit - should also note I added some genuine schwinn grips...wouldn't want anyone accusing me of taking short cuts
