    1967 Schwinn Fastback

    That was a steal. The seat alone goes for around $200 if they are nice.

    A couple new toys

    I picked up this Huffy cruiser from a garage sale for just $10. I don't normally buy modern bikes especially anything made in China but the price was right and I figured the tires were worth what I paid for the bike. It was somewhat rusty and dirty from sitting in his garage for a while but it...

    Vista "the banana"

    Cool find. A guy has a couple on the musclebikeamarica forum. Looks like your fork things are on backwards. Nice find on the extra seat. Those are hard to find also.

    Swing Bike Project

    I sold all the ones I made. You will need to keep the angle so the seat has clearance. Otherwise the bolt will hit the bottom of the seat. I could not find a stem quill of the right size. An old bike shop up town had some quill bolts which were used on English bikes back in the day. I had...

    I need help with a Nexus 3 speed hub

    Looks like its off to the bike shop for this one. I adjusted and adjusted the cable but it never shifted right. I can get it to shift from 2nd to 3rd but it wont downshift until you apply the brakes. When its in 2nd gear something clicks loudly. Worse case scenario I do have an extra hub but...

    I need help with a Nexus 3 speed hub

    Hey guys. I need a little help with a nexus 3 speed coaster brake hub. My dad has my Electra townie with a 3 speed nexus coaster brake hub. He took the rear wheel off to install a set of fenders. Now he can't get the bike to shift gears. I read online that you are supposed to shift the hub...

    1966 Schwinn Stingray: Few Questions...

    Steel wool is bad news for chrome. It may be a quick way to polish something but given time the rust will come back worse than before. Use some good quality chrome polish like mothers. Steel wool will make millions of little microscopic scratches on the surface of the chrome. Hit some chrome...

    1969 Stingray

    Juniors did have 20" wheels but the rear rim is a S7 which takes a unique size tire. Standard stingrays had a S2 rear wheel. The handlebars are smaller, seat post and sissy bar are shorter, seat is smaller, goose neck is different, smaller hand grips, smaller frame with the lucky 7 sprocket...
