went to recycle aluminum cans for work today and the guy that runs the place has been watchin for schwinns for me. He had these at a very reasonable price :D

Nice, those forward freewheels/ cranks are rare, I have only 2 of those out of several hundred bikes. The back wheel has no freewheel, the chain moves whenever the wheel is turning. I made a cheater fixgear with one of these for the Fisk Knob TT I was afraid of going down the mountain and not being able to coast.

I added some chain tighteners, but the chain still managed to come off during the race.
