I mocked up the rim & tire combo and all looks good! I'd say .125" (1/8") clearance per side, tight, but will work. I also cut out the frnder brace, going to weld in a tubular one like bmx style. Also removed chain guard tabs, and the tabs on the rear drop outs, then welded up the gouges in the...

Running some new alienation 26" alloy wheels. I know a 2.125" fits with breathing room, and hoping since a 2.3 is only about .090" wider per side, it might work. Tires and wheel set are not here yet.

Title says it all, I'm building a 26" Schwinn Cruiser for a friend. I have tubular bmx 26" forks, so front won't be a problem. But I already ordered tires and now wondering if I screwed up. Will 2.3's fit a Middleweight frame? Thanks!

Great, thanks for the information!

Thanks! Are the middleweight and heavyweight the same fork? I'm going to run at least 2.125's on it, just want to make I have clearance.

I have a 1981 Schwinn single speed 26" Cruiser. I want to put Sturmey Archer drum brake hubs on it. Are there standard widths for front and rear drop out spacing?

Thanks guys! I do have a 16 tooth freewheel in my spare parts, maybe I'll try that first and see if I like before buying a 17.

i have a 1980 Schwinn Cruiser in building up and I'm putting a freewheel on it. I already have a 39 tooth chainring, looking for advice on freewheel tooth. The bike will be more of a cal cruiser/Strandie with a lil BMX flair. Will mostly be ridden around camp grounds, beach sidewalks. I looked...

Any updates on this? Just don't want to start my Schwinn Cruiser project is this is right around the corner. Thanks!

Thanks for the response, much appreciated. Guess I'll follow along to see where the new Webco frame goes!

Interested!

Anymore of these frames left? Thanks!

Hello there, newbie to the site. I've been building and or preserving vintage BMX bikes for the last 5 years or so. Just recently we bought our first RV, 1991 Winnrbago, and decided I needed two cruisers for the campground. Luckily I had two in the garage, a 1959 Schwinn Tornado that I restored...
