Moved onto the rear rim. I have a schwinn s-7 with a red band hub. It’s a greasy mess! I took it apart and it had bright red grease in it. It also has a destroyed bearing on the drive side. Not sure if I’ll fix it or find another rim. It also has a few bent spokes.
Since I typically build...
I like my bikes to have some sort of rack to strap a water bottle or wrenches to. I thought about buying a sissy bar rack. Then I had a idea to make something from some stuff. Not sure if I’ll use it like this but I kinda like it.
First idea but it looks terrible
Second idea

I’m using Turtle wax and free microfiber cloths from harbor freight. The paints kinda beat up but I like it that way

Not much progress to show. I did start cleaning some goo off of the paint.

Bike has new tires and chain. The battery tray looks brand new and works. Local sale only. Will consider trades on schwinn middleweights men’s or women’s $175 obo

I think I’m going to ditch the 10 speed bars. I took my bike off of the stand to see if I liked it. They will be too low and too far forward for me. So I’ll be searching around for a kool set of bars. I’ve always seen it with wide apehangers

I kinda want a set of the wide early stingray bars for it. It may go that way. For now I have 10 bucks worth of tape and a set of bars off of a junker
