I guess this bike fits the custom side of Schwinn.

Just finished building this 50's B.F.G Hornet.. still need to tweak a few things after last night's test ride, but it's going to be a great summertime ride. This frame was originally going to be used for a completely different kind of build involving a repaint and a tank, but when these tires came up, its fate was sealed.. thanks for the deal on these tires, SimpleMan!

Here's a few more of my Schwinns...
This one's a 1977 with Felt wheels.

This ones' a all original unrestored 1980...

This is also a 1980 with some kewl old skool parts...

1970 Resto-mod Schwinn Collegiate. Most of the original parts were too rusted to restore, so the best option was this. Old meets new.

WOW! great collection man. Can you shed some more info on the 3rd bike? the one labeled high key. Is it bare metal? also, what size are the wheels?

There are some really nice builds already in this thread, here are some of the Schwinns I've done.

A 1959 Traveler, my current project:

1964 Hollywood, my other current project for my girlfriend. Trying to figure out how to use 26"x1.75" wheels and avoid the pedal scrape.

1970 Varsity with updated wheels, brakes, and paint. My daily driver

Collegiate I had and sold to a friend, can't remember the year.

Continental! I miss this bike. I did end up moving the brake to the front and removed the rear brake.

You could use shorter crank arms.


Posted elsewhere, but it qualifies... '71 Twinn

I think that's my best solution! Thank you, Scurry Murry. Nice Twin!
