    Schwinn S7 Tire Size

    I have a Schwinn Jaguar with the S7 rim, is it possible to run a 26 x 2.125 on this rim? I ordered a Duro cream brick and I couldn't get the tire to fit. Any advice on this subject would be great. Thanks.

    Schwinn Jaguar Mark IV - Finished

    I picked this bike up about 3 months ago, but up until a few weeks ago I've been in the travel season of work so I haven't had much time to work on it. Got the bike for a pretty good deal on craigslist, $200. The thing that attracted me the most is that it's all original minus missing the...

    Schwinn Jaguar

    Yes I believe this model did have a rack. There is an attachment for it on the stem. My buddy actually has one and he will be giving it to me. As for the light, still looking. I'll look for the serial number tonight, plan to fix it up in a couple weeks when I'm on spring break. ***Sticker...

    Schwinn Jaguar

    Just picked up this guy off of craigslist this past weekend. I plan on keeping it pretty much stock, probably will flip the bars and put a layback seatpost on it, but that's it. Paint is in good shape as is the chrome. Also has the original brick tires, grips and pedals. Anyone have advice on...

    Coast King Restore - DONE!!

    Re: Coast King Restore Got the LEDs installed and everything is dry and cured from the clear coat. Had some issues with the rear fender. I opted to go with a wider tire size so had to widen the rear, but finally got the wheel in after a couple hours of fooling around. Will update tomorrow...

    Coast King Restore - DONE!!

    Re: Coast King Restore I had them custom made at the local sign shop. I still have 1 more in white if you are interested in it cheap. Otherwise she charges $20 for a minimum order. I could also send you my scanned file and you could get it made whatever color you want.
