Always glad to see a update to this thread but sad to learn of Poppy's passing. Really enjoyed the looking back tribute pictures at the end.

It's looking great and now no more front fork worries. I pray the typhoon passes you guys without destruction and grief.

Most have probably already seen this deal but both Walmart and Target have the Dolomite for $199 today for a Cyber Monday deal. http://www.walmart.com/ip/26-Mongoose-Dolomite-Men-s-7-speed-Fat-Tire-Mountain-Bike-Navy-Blue-Red/29741123...

Only if you post videos of you doing BMX stunts on it. :D Them tires should help with the landings.

Sears sold loads of different sporting goods items with the JC Higgins name. Rifles, shotguns, and fishing reels are among the most common items but there were many many other items that bore the name.

Glad you have decided to keep it. I myself never scrap good usable bike frames or parts.

I would hate to get my pants leg caught in that meat grinder.:D

Here is a link for Schwinn catalogs from 1991 to 2000. http://www.trfindley.com/flschwinn_1991_2000/index.html The Frontier shows up in about all of them. You would have to figure out what year by frame size, color, components..... compared to the specs each year. Your Varsity frame frame...

WOW! That is a great deal. Made by Giant in Taiwan. It probably has a chromoly steel frame. Fork steel varied by specific models. Would have to go through the old Schwinn ads from the 80's and 90's to find your specific year Frontier and get all the specs.

I use a flat head screw driver but I just spray water inside the grip as I work the screw driver around. They slide right off without the nasty petroleum products. No clean up, nothing scratched, and can be re-installed right away.

A few days ago I thought it had been quite a while since a update and worried something was wrong. Really glad it was just a computer issue and that everyone is fine. When I got my first Windows 8/8.1 machine I hated it the first months as well but after time I don't mind 8.1 now and switch...

I agree having links and pics for the parts would raise their sales. They are a company I root for like many others because they manufacture here. Even though I have no practical use for their heavy duty alloy wheels I have and use a set just because they are cool looking IMO. Like many here on...

The pics are not showing for me. It seems 90% of Tapatalk pics don't show anymore on my Windows 7 & 8 machines.

Congrats!! I hope to find a inexpensive Racer someday.

+2 Their whole site could use some work but the parts list needs major attention.

The chrome on most China bikes is so low quality it seldom cleans up well. It tends to just rust through or peel off.

Wow! So few of us have a actual bike from our childhood. Love those Murray winged rear dropouts. Be sure to show us some pictures after you clean it up and maybe after you hang it in the garage.

I 2nd the liking the pics but not the fact you had a spill. Hope you and the bike are okay.

:rofl::grin::D:rofl: Such a shame because most of us would like to see that video.

The bike is awesome and the bars look great to me.
