1971 Schwinn Twinn Schwinn Twinn tandem! by curlywolf, on Flickr

My lady and I have had an eye out for a tandem, for a little while now. Finally found one that is in proper condition and, to be honest, to her liking. After all she does have the final say... :oops: (on this one!) It's a '71 Schwinn Twinn single speed. After I loaded it into the truck, I found...

Cool looking bike. I like the details: the painted (decal?) hash marks, the little flip-up on the chainguard, the stem looks like it has some cool detail, and are the rims paint-matched to the headbadge?

Great job cleaning it up! That would be neat to have it as wall art. Let us know if that's the route you go. -e

Sweet deal! It looks to be in pretty good shape. I'd pay $60 for it, and according to http://www.angelfire.com/rant/allday101 ... odes4.html its was made in April 1973.

Nice Pug. I have a 70s uo-8 in the garage I haven't got to yet. I ride my Fuji regularly, with a 52/18 ss set-up. I prefer it to the 39t that was the other stock ring, but it can be tough an steep hills. I've never had to walk it though. Got used to it, i guess. That said, I do think a bigger...

Cool. Looks nice. Is it black & gold? That's a good combo.

I love your thought process. You got a little time before she's ready to ride, but I'm sure she'll be grown in no time! Congrats on the new addition to your family. ps - I just built one of these for the Build Off... viewtopic.php?f=60&t=43696

So COOL! I like the "saddlebags." You probably have enough room to sit your kid on that luggage rack too. That thing a limousine!

They all look great! I like that burrito on top alot. I was thinking the same thing. :lol:

Looks great. I like the heat-treated chain guard. What size is that rear tire?

Thanks for the compliments, everyone. It was great fun to join the Build Off. Yes Petrohead, its a 16" ... and yes it is pretty small... but I can ride it :wink:

So here it is. This was my first go at a Build Off, and I have to say it was a lot of fun! Not only putting together my bike, but seeing the others do theirs. We're always amazed at the talent shown by the members! I'm glad I took part in this Build Off, and hope to do it again! blah, blah...

Very nice beach theme going on. Turned out great!

That looks awesome!

Nice! Good job on your first. :D

Absolutely awesome. HAHA. I love this.

Re: Aluminati*SilVeR KinG* (((Time To add A liTtle RaTT!))) agreed. :wink:

Shameless plug... I like it...(and I "Liked" it).

Love it. Everything about it... down to the detail on the underside of the front 'fender.' Great bike!
