Well… I got a lot of bikes to build (and hopefully sell) this summer!!!! Let’s get it started!
Here’s #1 for 2023: 24” speedster camelback
Nothing huge going down on this thing:
a lot of people look down their noses at 24” bikes: I do enjoy casual evening rides down to the lake on a 24” bike. I regret selling ‘the Schwinn no one wanted’ so I picked up this guy!
We’ll build it, enjoy it and see what happens !!!!
The bike is really in good shape: 100% complete and beautiful patina: both wheels don’t spin too well, but some carb cleaner and lube and this guy will be good!!!
So, here’s the plan for this guy;
Wash
Fresh tires
Bobbed fenders
BLO
‘Naner seat
Apes
Lube, tune and roll!!!
