Hello all you Schwinn fans. I live near one of the largest Flea Markets around. "Canton, TX Trade Days". It happens every first Monday of every month and is this weekend. I always see many, many old bikes here. It's where I picked up Crodhopper frame for $5.00. Anyways, I always see a lot of Schwinn stuff, but it seems a little pricey for me, like $50.00 for rust bucket, etc. I hate to see them just sit there! I guess my question is What is a decent price range for Schwinn bikes, assuming lower is better, but what is fairly normal?
Fill in the blanks, assume these are fairly complete bikes, 26" I guess - just trying to get a starting point foundation type of thing here:
1.) Complete rust bucket, no paint visible, hubs, chain locked.
2.) Decent, but scratchy old paint, rolls a little, but maybe rims bent, etc.
3.) Better shape/best maybe, not restored, but put air in tires and wash it and it'll do.
Thanks, T.
OH! Where is that old Schwinn bicycle number code thing posted?
