Picked this bike up at a local junk store/thrift shop for $21.76 (20 plus tax). Figured it would make cool wall art if it turns out to be worthless. Looking for any info on this bike. Thanks in advance. Bryan

Finally getting around to start my thread for the build off. This bike is(at least what I was told) a 1976 Raliegh mx. Picked this bike up for $30 bucks. I thought it was such a cool, funky looking frame, that I had to have it. This bike is going to be for my 7 year old son when it's all done...

Can you still be in class 1 if you have to fix cracks and holes in the frame?

I can't wait for the MBBO!!

Looking good man! Here's a pic of my '52 Buick and the fireball 8.

Here she is, the finished bike. I never got around to building a cedar tank, so the name no longer works. Oh well I guess. Link to the build and tons of photos. http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/index.php?threads/the-schwinn-cedar-41-dx-done-more-pics-8-2.83393/ Here is she is. Here is a...

Thanks man! I think number 2 is the best as well.

I moved the bars down and adjusted the grips. What do you think?

More pictures! I took some advice from Kingfish and lowered the bars and the grips. It looks a lot better. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Thanks for the tip. I just wont be able to get any more cool flicks of the bike before the build off is up. I will try tho!!

Here is my bike. Frame/fork is faux patina, but the rest can't be faked. http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/index.php?threads/the-schwinn-cedar-41-dx-done.83393/

Very cool. The frame lines are all smooth and flow together nicely.

All done!! Well I never got the tank built, oh well. But now the bike name doesn't really work.....hmmmmm Well, here are some pics from my ride over the weekend along the Tacoma waterfront. I think I like pic 2 and 6 best for my entry photo. What do you guys think?

Thanks!! I know what I'm doing this weekend now!

Thanks! Any tips on cleaning it?

It's all good, I will figure something out when I tear it all down for cleaning.

I just went and looked and sure enough it is bent! Thanks for catching that, not real sure how I missed it.

I scored this rider Saturday morning at a garage sale. It's a Schwinn American built 2/14/1964. I put some air in the tires and took her for a ride. Rides real good! Bike is a bit rusty, but otherwise in great shape. It has a wald rack up front, and I'm guessing the apes were added later on in life.

Awesome!

One more question, am I allowed to tear my disassemble my bike before the build off starts? Bryan
