Well I love video games new and old, but my heart likes the oldies better. I have always wanted an arcade machine like pac-man or donkey kong. But I just cant see spending several thousand dollars for a couple of machines. So I decided to take matters into my own hands and build me an arcade...

Been working on this for a little while. My grandpa gave me this 1976 chevy truck about 10 years ago, and some rust started to take over. I figured since I don't have the money to restore it why not feature the rust for what it is. I know it is old but not that old. I just gave it that hot...

Well, I built this bike a little while ago. Trying to do some minor changes to it, and yet still keep it classy and clean. The bike had no fenders, and I love the no fender look. But I was feeling crafty, and threw on a stingray rear fender. I have to admit, I think it really helps to set...

Hello everyone- It has been a long long while since I posted on the forum. I am still surf the site all the time, not to worry I am still a bike nut. This time I am not posting up an old bike build, but it still has style. It's on 07 trek drift cruiser, of coarse I can't leave...

I just found a schwinn stingray surfboard. I was wondering if anyone knew anything about them. I heard they are really rare.

Well lets see this week has been a strange one for me. It started off going to the dealer and putting a down payment on a new 08 yamaha zuma. went home monday and checked my bank account. To find that instead of putting 200.00 down on the card, like I asked. The dealer put 2,225.00 on the...

Anybody else been striking out in terms of finding a wal mart sting ray? I know there has to be a few left out there!

Let' see I stated off with a ladies 87 schwinn cruiser, and tore it apart. I used just about ever bit of the 87 except for the seat post. Then I came across a schwinn 59 fairlady frame, from a friend and meshed the two together. My girlfriend picked out what colors she wanted and the rest is...

I did a little home made bicycle wall mount over the weekend. I mounted my schwinidan cause it looks so cool on display. It is also easy to remove and ride.

Here is my latest build, The OLDE DUCE. I have always had a thing for bonneville motorcycles and cars, and wanted to bring some of the flavor to life in a bike. I got the name OLDE DUCE form a mentally disabled guy I met at a car show, real nice guy. There was a replica general lee at the...

I have a question for the bmx guys out there. I have a ladies schwinn suburban and I am wanting to install a bmx seat, only on problem the seat I want is PIVOTAL and I would need to use a pivotal seat post. I know for fact that the pivotal seat post is to wide for the bike, and wanted to see...

I have a ladies 79' schwinn suburban, with the 27" inch wheels. Does anyone no how wide of a tire I can stuff under that frame if I switch to a 26" wheel set?

I have a 65 schwinn corvette frame I already have the 2.125 tire in the back. Is it possible to stuff a 26x3 in the back. I have heard yes and no, and beginning to wonder if it depends on the brand of the tire. Any help at all would be great.

Today was slow at work, because of Christmas coming up. So I decided I wanted a schwinn sign, cause I cant seem to find an old one. I made it form the old school cross logo, mounted on pvc with some fancy specialty vinyls we had laying around. The picture does not do it justice, but the blue...

A quick question, can an older schwinn frame use a 24 tpi bottom bracket or does it have to be the 28 tpi? It seems there are a lot more 24 tpi parts around rather then 28 tpi.

I had this in the wrong part of the forum. So I brought it over to the fresh finds. My grandpa came across it at a garage sale for 5 dollars. It is a 78 schwinn suburban. It is in great shape.

Well my grandpa surprised me with a pretty sweet find. I just picked it up today. One of his friends wanted to get rid of this bike, so my grandpa snatched it up for just 5 bucks. It is a 78 schwinn suburban, and looks like everything is all there, just needs tires and a little polish. It is...

Just wanted to see if anyone else has seen one of these before. Just thought I would share. http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/electric-bik ... 304339.php

Here is the canvas I am going to start my build with. It is a 70ish fuji feather that was given to me by a friend. I don't plan on having this bike look the same when I get done with it. The challenge is going to be finding parts that fit, but that is also the fun part. Now just got to get...

Ok here it is I finally had a chance to finish it off. I added the chain and a mini rear fender that I flipped upside down. I took it out for a spin and she handles great, hugs the road. It is a good thing I am not that tall, or it would be difficult to ride.
