Thanks to Customizer 007 for a great trade. Here is the mockup fresh out of the box. I FINALLY found a home for these 24", 36 hole, Ivory with black pinstripe Schwinn S-2 Wheels with NOS Crest Deluxe tires! Yeah! Nexus 7 speed out back, Roller brake front hub.

Joe, that is a great combo on the wheels and tires. The tires are very unique. How do you like the roller brakes?

Re: @@ Spitfire @@
How much stretchin' did it take to get that rear hub to fit?
Wouldn't mind having a 7 speed Nexus on mine.  
Re: @@ Spitfire @@
These are the standard Roller brakes. I would say that between the both of them they are just adequate. Not into going fast so they get the job done. If you need top notch stopping power you have to opt for the deluxe roller brakes with the vented heat disc. THey grab!
I only had to spread apart about 1/8 inch each side. This was an original S-2 bike so the dropouts were already pretty wide. Steve, I like your SPitty! Too bad it is a 26" wheeled bike or I would have been all over it! I still like the 26's, just have a few too many right now. joe CMAN "There is no such thing as spending time irresponsibly when it comes to bikes. "Honey will you take the garbage out?"

Oh snaps! It's muscle bike time! Is your bike red or orange? I can't tell on my tiny screen..
I can't decide what bike to ride.. My Firmstrong, my Dyno, my Electra, my Schwinn, my...
