    Lets See Those 26" BMX Styled Cruiser Builds

    I can't recall how we got to the year originally, serial number I think...but I'm fairly certain it is. Looks like '50 was the last year of that style dropouts IIRC

    1949 Schwinn BoardTrack

    Mocked up a front fender I had laying around. A little trimming/notching and some hardware and this should do nicely. I think it helps to balance the bike a bit as all the black was on the front.

    Valvesprung's Completed Projects

    Some bikes from over the years. Many of them are decidedly un-ratty, but figured you lot my dig 'em anyway

    1949 Schwinn BoardTrack

    Nearly finished now, just waiting on the headlight, chain, and different crank arms (these hit the frame). Seatpost is getting dropped a well, but it needs a little love and the baby was sleeping :p My buddy made the wood grips for me as I used a 23.8 road type bar and couldn't find any to save...

    Mobilegas drag racer "Glitter and Patina"

    Decided to do up an old Murray girls frame that I've had around for way too long. This build was inspired by a buddy's VW Fastback with the same scheme. He's actually bought the bike since completion :) First a little sex change: Chopped down some bars: Add some new goodies...

    Schwinn World Porteur build up

    I got an old rusty beach bike from a friend that I've been ignoring for a long while now. Decided to do something with it. The fork was bent to heck and every piece of chrome was rusted beyond repair, but the frame had killer patina and the decals looked awesome. Even has faint gold pinstriping...

    First Build: Ghetto Jack

    How did you go about removing the logos from the "tank" panel? They look to be cleared over, but I really want to strip them off of mine...

    Diamond frame board track - Varsity gettin some love (DONE!)

    Thank you so much! I' was really pretty surprised and flattered. I honestly figured most people woudn't know what to make of the Schwinn or how much subtle work went into it, especially since it was peoples choice. It definitely felt good to win one of the categories.
