    SWB0 Scrap metal

    I really want this to be a different color but I really really don’t want to paint a frame in the cold so I’m gonna have a salmon colored 3 speed Schwinn I guess…

    SWB0 Scrap metal

    Spokes should be here tomorrow so time to get to work! Finished disassembly, bottom bracket and headset are dry but in good shape, so I got all the small parts cleaned up

    SWB0 Scrap metal

    I’ve been completely slacking on this bike but I want to get it done, so today I figured out what I have and don’t have to finish it. This $5 swap meet seat should work on a skinny build also these pedals, I’ll use the existing crank and chain ring, they look to be in good shape I like the bend...

I’ll use the whole front wheel, and just the rim off the rear lastly...

    SWB0 Scrap metal

    Did you ride your bike to school?

I did win a bet with my...
