I was concerned about spreading the frame and jamming the wheel into place but once in and with chain in place she rides and shifts great. I am real happy with the results. I get to run the tires I want and I have a few gears for this not so flat desert. The springer, the 3 speed and the tires should be the answer to my campground cruising needs.
I did get your invite, thanks I will definitely try and make it.

Nice!

 

[azmathys]

Yes, switching rims for sure. I already bought some tires I really want to run.

Got to have some thorn protection in Arizona.

Wow very nice ride !

The Nexus is a free wheel. I am hunting for a rear brake. No brakes and alcohol [emoji16]

The bike is looking great. Always good to see a build off bike being used.

that sounds dangerous .. hope you get some installed before next ride

i was doubtful about the paint at first , but with that tank , the 2 tones really works well ,it blends every thing in and look very nice !

Chipped off some old glue on the badge this morning it ended up peeling up some of the silver paint. Without the paint it was clear, so I repainted and installed. This is the only place that the Schwinn name remains.

410 for the valve stems and 20 gauge for the bar ends

Thanks man! Yes, I agree without the tank to tie it altogether it definitely wouldn't have looked right. I am happy with the results.

The bike is looking good! Your rear rack must have been from a 27" wheeler. Could you fab an extension mount where it meets the seat stays to push it back and level it? Also will provide more clearance from the seat for your " sixer" .........

The rack is only temporary. I have a few ideas on fabricating something that suits my needs better.

I'm always a big fan of wood when it comes to add-ons for bikes!
