Thxcuz, that's a nice score. Let me know how that works out for you. I'm planning of doing the same thing. Replacing the drop bars and had also considered moving the shifters to the top tube. I recently had a nice Schwinn World Tourist stolen so I need to replace it just to be able to...

No, it did not come equipped with it. It was an option. The bike looks exactly the way it looked in 73 catalog with Brooks seat, touring bag, pump with the exception of the generator light. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Let me clarify. I did have a nice Schwinn World Tourist which was stolen about a week ago. So I'm familiar with road bikes, but I was thinking of replacing my stolen bike with an other road bike... just looking for something lighter that I can use for longer rides. Thanks Sent from my...

Great stuff and timely. Just started looking at road bikes and when I say road bikes I'm referring to lighter bikes, 10 speeds or so and thinner tires. So I found your info very informative and just happened to answer the exact question I had. What makes a quality road bike? I do own...

Found this beauty today in a garage hanging from the rafters collecting dust. I actually purchase both, his and hers. Couldn't help myself. It belong to an older lady who had not ridden the bikes since her husband past away. They have been stored away for years. I assured her, I would give...

Hey I'm in. Let me know when. Once I know what kind of meat is on the menu, I'll decide on a side dish and/or an appetizer to complement the meat. Just a suggestion. The I&M Canal along the Lockport/Joliet area would be a nice bike ride. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes, they sell parts, nuts and bolts just about anything. Cool place to hang out and talk bike stuff. 2400 S. Western. Open from Wednesday to Saturday Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Found this crank arm and sprocket for $5 today at Working Bikes. This place is the equivalent of a vehicle junk yard, a warehouse of used bikes, parts, wheels, rims, etc. it is a non for profit organization that donates proceeds and refurbished bikes to different organizations throughout the...

Wildcat, thanks for the info. And Green Dragon, Thanks for the heads up. I believe it's an S7 but will double check later this evening. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
