Father in law hand me down

[naturephotoboy3]

Father in law recently brought this Scrambler from Albuquerque to Phoenix and wanted his grandson (my son) to have this bike since he knew I rebuild old Schwinn's. The bike was bought new in the 70's for his son's. What a cool bike

Well now that you mention it..maybe not. I haven't seen too many of these. Are they pretty rare??? or just not well liked???

other than the brakes going bad...this thing is in great condition. Son isn't big enough yet..he's only 4. I'm trying to decide if i retore it to original looks...or do something fun with the bike...any ideas???

keep it as is, when he gets old enough show him what has to be done to keep it nice then let him ride it nice bikes like that were meant to be ridden, just my .02.

I agree.

I would do as your father-in-law intended and let him ride it. Yes it is a nice survivor but it wont' fall apart with some riding. Just show your son the proper treatment for bikes and always store inside(garage).
