schwinn

I posted this bike a few months back kind of in a mock up form. I had pretty much abandoned the project because of some personal problems I had to resolve. Well, in the last week, I decided it would be a good idea to get started on it. Honestly, I finished this thing a lot faster than I...

Much like my Wildcat this started as an ebay purchase this past Summer, I spent some time rounding up just the right parts and when I finished up the Murray I went to work on this one. A couple of ideas I had for this didn't work out but I'm still really happy with the result. I did decide not...

I just had to buy this from a guy in Iowa. I know it is missin a few things like the horns but it is pretty decent overall for 1967. It has the original chainguard so that is cool. Now to find some ram horns!!!! And a few other things ...

Ok -- I got this for a good price but now I am wondering. It has nearly perfect paint on 1/2 of the bike and the other half ... not so much. It was a 5 speed stik. I have a new fork but I am concerned about a few areas and I wanted to see what you guys think and how you would handle it. I...

I was lucky enough to be handed this Schwinn lil Chik and decided to make it a surprise gift for my 6 year old cousin! It is super clean and now even cleaner and ready for her to rip around on it! Had to dress it up with some girly stuff for her though haha! I like it without the stuff but...

Just finished this Schwinn Cruiser this week. Had a spare frame and fork set that I took over to Jacob of Ideal Coatings last weekend and he powder coated it candy blue for me. I ended up using the wheel set I had built up which had the Sturmey Archer 3 speed rear drum hub and the front drum hub...

This build is a build for one of the owners of the company where my brother and I work. That's where we are getting the name for this build THE BIG BOSS. The owner has seen a few of the bikes I have built and mentioned that he would like to buy one from me one day. I was showing him pics of the...

My name is Danny. I'm in Tucson Arizona. I've been a huge schwinn fan for over 20 years. I recently wanted to purchase a few bikes from a friend who had many and he convinced me to buy his whole collection. I am in the process of selling off all the bikes I don't want and whittling down to what...

Well, I've been really in and out of the hobby the past five or six months, its been even longer since I really felt frequent here. Close to a year by now, maybe. My last post was a '47 Monark Rocket 24" [First year for those] to get info with literally not a single reply to the post and...

I bought this Schwinn Ace last week, I'm hoping to get it sold before I go back to Georgia. Serial Number I7001. It's in pretty good shape, mightve been repainted though. As far as I can tell, the only issues with it is a small hole in the rear fender and the wheels are probably the wrong ones...

BF Goodrich frame. Arraya rims. Bendix manual 2 speed. Schwinn script bolt on brakes (some new hardware). Bullmoose bars. Custom Soundgarden sprocket. Designed after their "Badmotorfinger" cover art. Only thing I can say is the rear stays could use to be separated a bit more. Rear wheel a...
