Meet Vasectomy.. a tall road bike.

[ACD]

This bike was custom ordered in the early 80's by a customer of mine. It is a Schwinn World Sport 12-spd with 27" wheels and a 27" inch frame. Standover height of the top tube is 36" inches. I could ride it but mounting and dismounting was at best "risky". She was in real nice shape and I gave it to my neighbor as he is tall and has talked of getting a road bike. I had a very nice Raleigh Sedona about 1984 given to me today and it fit a lot better. I think my neighbor likes his present, I've seen him on it twice road testing it.

I'm gettin a nose bleed just from looking at those bikes. :lol:

 

[Hooch]

mine will be changing it will get alloy wheels and possibly a 2 speed
its so heavy lol it weighs more than any balloon tire bikes i have

Hooch,Do those tires even spin in that frame? Looks like a tight sqweeze.

Looks good.

 

[Hooch]

yes I spread the back abit first and the front in tight but know rubbing it takes a straight wheel lol
now if I didnt want to use these red tires I would have used some 26 x 1.95 tires
those would be a better fit
