    What have you been riding lately?

    Love the BMX hybrid thingy! What is it? More info please.

    Post your 26 bmx cruisers here...

    This is my Schwinn Ripper. 🤣🤣 Santa hooked up with some S&M 12 Step bars. They're huge! Makes the 9.5" bars on my Heavy Duti look small. It's such a pleasure to ride this bike. I had 6" bars on it, but didn't like leaning over so much. Sitting upright now. I ditched the front brakes. I'm...

    What are you listening to?

    Dino Jelusick. This lad can just flat out sing. My favorite rock singer.

    1989 Hardrock project.

    The same thing happened to me with my 14 year old son (now 16) and my 26" SE OM Flyer. I put 9.5" rise bars on it and he thought that it was the best thing since sliced bread. I haven't ridden it since.

    Schwinn Supreme Klunker

    So do I leave the stock fork on , or swap it for a straight bmx fork? If so, black or chrome?

    Schwinn Supreme Klunker

    I found these. I had no idea they made 12" bars. That would definitely raise me up a bit and get me sitting more upright. https://www.danscomp.com/s-m-12-step-bars-flat-black-12-rise-20-12-step-blk/p1489358?v=1489359

    Schwinn Supreme Klunker

    I had these SE 6" rise bars and a Black Ops BMX stem laying around so I figured why not. I'm a Klunker kind of a guy. I ordered some new grips, ditched the twist shifter for a thumb shifter, and wallah! Klunker! The thumb shifter goes thru all 7 gears surprisingly smooth. I feel like I'm...

    700c Frame Question

    I've thought about just buying some used SE 29" rims (found a set locally for $100), 700x38 tires and a chain to swap onto my Schwinn Heavy Duti when I feel like it, instead of building a complete bike as funds will be limited until November. After measuring, I'll have enough room for the 29s.

    700c Frame Question

    I was actually thinking more of a cantilever cruiser frame. I'm going for the big bmx cruiser look with 700c or 29er wheels and tires. I like 700c x 38 size tires.

    700c Frame Question

    My next bike project will be a 700c cruiser. I want to use an old Schwinn frame. Are there certain frames that will accommodate 700c wheels and tires better than others?

    Fork and stem help?

    Does this need a primer?

    Fork and stem help?

    What color yellow would you call this and where can I find the same color to repaint the frame?

    Schwinn Heavy Duti Cruiser

    If my butt continues to be sore, I may try a different seat or a 6" BMX bar I have laying around to take some pressure off the sitz bones. Thanks for the idea of a lower bar.

    Schwinn Heavy Duti Cruiser

    This bike is in desperate need of paint. My initial intent was to paint it lime green and get all black slick tires, but the yellow is growing on me.

    Schwinn Heavy Duti Cruiser

    Went for another 11 mile cruise this evening. Hey, it's Father's Day! I can do what I want! 😜 I Could ride this bike all day long. I just need to get used to the seat. I haven't ridden in a while, and my tookis isn't used to being in the saddle for that long. I'll just have to keep riding. 🤘🤘

    Schwinn Heavy Duti Cruiser

    I wasn't sure whether or not to put this here or in the Klunker section. Because of the bars, I figured it would be better suited for BMX Cruiser. It started life as a fendered beach cruiser. I don't like fenders, and I love tall BMX bars. The fork is an inexpensive Amazon $50 special. The...
