    PARTS,GIRLS SCHWINE and a PANDA???

    Opps it only took one more set inside of goggle: "Panda BMX" and here it is: Maybe those rims are talking because the panda had heavier, plus a multi speed sprocket so they could change the size sprocket by just sliding the rear rim back or forth, for different terrains. And the guy who...

    PARTS,GIRLS SCHWINE and a PANDA???

    Not tough to find info on. Just google: "panda bicycle" it's on the 1st page of hit returns But your frame isn't listed.. The sprocket apears in 1979 though. The frame apears through 1978. It's not listed but the models in 1979 have a different pattern at the head post bars. I.E. the one...

    PARTS,GIRLS SCHWINE and a PANDA???

    Yup that fork is drilled. Heck it's worth a shot pealing the paint back on that chainguard. That seat looks like it could be a 1957-8. Here's the same chainguard I discovered on a 1955 24" girls corvette. It took some doing to reveal the label and with so little left on it. This Guard had...

Apparently very, very rare, nobody ever seen a covette with that chaingaurd before. It's got the frame and fork set up...

    THE FRITZ FIFTY - LIMITED EDITION STING-RAY

    Not to stir up things but, I completely agree with the associated expense of building a "quality bike" in today's world or worker market place. . However, I think the greatest problem in Schwinn. is actually a very small expense and it's regardless whether made in USA or Moon base I. The best...

    Schwinn I.D and Price

    This could be tricky if you're not careful, but, I picked up a 1948 campus green DX girls Schwinn that had been in a field for 10 year or so.. pretty rusty if can imagine.. I've experimented on several things with a cheap,, toilet bowl clear, so figured wouldn't hurt this project. Dollar store...
