    Prewar Schwinn "Snow Day" FINISHED PICS

    What type of rear hub and what type of trouble. I'm amazed at the rebuild guides in the how to section of this forum. I had a hub that wouldn't engage at all. Forwards or backwards. Rebuilt it and now it's as good as new Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    WINTER BUILD OFF "STEEL CITY"

    Craigslist nightmares and dreams...

    I see an easy $1000 there if you wanted to take the time to part it out. But that would be a lot of work Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    WINTER (DEC 1st 2013- MARCH 1st 2014) build-off (summer in Aust) All Done! JOIN US NEXT YEAR!

    I'm confused on the difference of prewar vs post war. Being a 45 would make it prewar it would be during war. So in theory would a 40 be considered pre war or during war? Because Europe was in war but we weren't. I think a '37 or older should be considered prewar but that's just me. Or is every...

    Bendix automatic part ID and where to buy?

    I have the one he sent me. It didn't work for what I needed. I ground off the tabs but I can probably weld something and make it work perfect. It still works fine but I believe those are there for safety. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It also says thank we we appreciate your business on the door. But the bikes look older the 40's to me. The one has a strait down bar and a hockey stick guard. Definitely worth a closer look in person. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Winter Build off, The (.....) Baron

    You should try to grind the paint off before you weld it. It will make a cleaner weld. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The red band express 4 speed

    So I promise I've been working on my bike. Not as much as I wish but I have been. So pulled the hub apart and tried grinding some tabs in hops that I could get the hub to spin backwards when pedaling backwards. But everything locks up. So I have a new plan the involves roller skate bearing. Not...

    For the most part I'm sure everyone's bike is going to be rideable. We shouldn't have to prove it. Just take ones word for it. I think that rule was there so someone wouldn't take there build to far and make a sky scraper that would crumple under the average humans weight because they used duct...
