    26" to 24" question

    I just picked these bikes up in hopes to fix one up for my wife. They are both 26" bikes and wondering if i could change it over to a 24". A 26" bike is a little to tall for her and she wants something custom and i haven't had much luck finding an old 24" bike. The first thing im thinking...

    No idea but it is a girls bike

    All i know is that its blue and a girls bike. I bought it with 2 other schwinns that are 68 and 74 so im guessing its somewhat that era.

    seat setback

    No idea what it is

    The blue bike was a project about 10 years ago I did with a friend. The s/n is k99d25378 on the bottom crank. When i got it there was schwinn stickers and head badge. I posted it on a schwinn forum to look for info about it and found out it is not a schwinn. I got it for free but it was on...
