    Dyno ultra glide questions

    It's one of my 1955 hornets. I was offered $250 alone for the wheelset. I don't like schwinns but I got two original paint ones. I have it for sale locally for $550 Obo. I usually don't ask people's opinions on bikes but I do like the dyno. My collection goes from bikes from 1928 to 1961 so I...

My schwinn has all the bells and whistles minus a tank. I've been offered a lot of money for the s2s alone. I know my values...

    Department Store Bikes!

    Since we are on the topic of Snyder built hawthornes was rollfast produced for any retail stores. I have a 34 rollfast and a 34 Hawthorne both are motobikes both made by Snyder and accessories both produced by d.p. Harris hardware and all parts are interchangeable. Was rollfast a main production...

    Department Store Bikes!

    Back in the day small chain hardware stores and dept stores would buy x amount of bikes from the major distributors. For example if you bought 500 or more bikes from schwinn they would even make a badge for that chain. I've seen badges for Ludwig wheels, island supply company and various...

    Tips For Riding In Big Packs of Riders (as in an event.)

    I've ridden in quite a few places but here in vegas it's almost a safety precaution to ride in packs. In my bike club days we rode the strip a lot and that's a death wish. Tourist have no respect for locals and I can't even count how many times some drunk ..... nearly swerved into us screaming...

    Huffy Score

    Pacific cycles is following up the columbia repop that was produced a few months back. Schwinn huffy and the new columbia are all bringing back their line of vintage inspired bikes. I like this one best of all so far. I think with a springer on the front it would make one good looking bike. I...

    Huffy Score

    I like the look now way better. Is it the angle of the pic or does it lean back? I really like the frame design. That would make a rad board track racer. Throw a China girl motor on it and gusset the joints and make her fly lol. Golly now I think I might roll over to Wally world and see if they...

    Are you gonna leave it as is or put some work into it?? $100 isn't too bad for a kool looking bike. I know a lot of people hate these China bikes and I was one of em but they're still kool looking. A kat out where I live bought one of those and gave it a whole new paint job upgraded some of the...
