yep, Another Schwinn. I'm thinking everyone knows the bike already so no before pics necessary. It's the flat black looking kind with the usual stuff on it, nothing fancy. My plan is to electrify it. This was always my favorite bike until it was stolen about 5 years ago. A cousin of mine just happened to have one getting all vintage in his back patio and decided to let me scoop it up, for free! So first order of business is to widen the fork so my 500w E-HubMotor will fit. I also have to move the V brake mounts up an inch or so to match the new 26" wheel up front. I got the "how-to" with the widening form this page: http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=28819
