    '84 Schwinn Cruiser Kickstand Question

    It looks like to me the 2 schwinn stands are for lightweight bikes as the angle is to sharp for a middle weight. A '84 would be a Hungarian schwinn I believe. I do not own any that late but I think the stands are the same as the Chicago schwinns. There are a few different types so the easiest...

    Fenders or Fenderless ?

In looking at the pictures it seems the tires are a bit heavy looking for the 16 inch midget bike without the fenders. They seem to kind...
