Maybe a little more air in that back tire.

I have a couple late 50s early 60s Schwinn 26" S7 wheel sets. Ready to mount and ride. One is regular coaster brake, the other is a 2 speed kick back set. I can sen pics if your interested.

I have a patch kit... in case I get a flat. Also a ton of spare parts!

My new (old) Schwinn. Its Red!

But its been a while. Since the advent of covo 19, Ive been getting more into vintage bikes again. Always loved the Schwinn Stingrays, But have been loving the older 26" Schwinns lately. My latest find is a 1954 26" Schwinn. Not sure which model. Also my 61 Jaguar is a cool cruiser.

Thanks, I have $360. invested in this bike so far. Would it be worth it to have the fenders done or would it be putting too much into the bike?

Wow! What a cool bike! Very nice job.:113:

I have the original stainless fenders and the tear drop rear reflector. I may put them on at a later time, but for now just going fenderless. The front rack and the headlight are MIA. Gary, Where would I go to get the fenders rolled?

I found this at a local flea market. I was so excited to get this apart and cleaned up, I didn't take any before pics. Shame on me for that. But here is what the old boy looks like now. I left the fenders off. They have some dents. The rear rack was so badly rusted, I decided to paint it black...

The slick is cool. I did find another seat for it at the flea mkt. Only 7 bucks. Its way better than the other one.

Re: Garage sale time killer Nice! I say never sell the good stuff.

Thanks you guys! Yes, I think a cooler seat would be in order. I'm always on the lookout for bike parts. I'll see if I can dig something up. What type tire would be cool for the back?

Thats true about the Schwinn chrome. I have had some utterly rusty shwinn chrome parts (bars, rims ect.) that came out way better than expected after cleaning. nice bike!

Cool!

I tink it looks somewhat ratty. Nice bike!

Hello folks! first post here. I stumbled upon this site yesterday while searching for bike info. What a cool place! :mrgreen: So here is my budget rat rod. I have a whopping $30. invested so far. Looking for some help. What do I need to make this bike more rat friendly?
