    What is this?

    the date code on the rear drop out matches up to a 62 Schwinn, but the frame looks wrong. The guy I got it from painted it nice, and put a rebuilt/painted New Departure on it. All I had to do was swap the junk seat and put on black grips. C232761

    bent fork help

    I have a Shelby Flyer with a bent fork. Its bent at the base. I dont think it can be bent back, and if it could be I dont think it would stay. They are blade type forks with a 7 1.25 head tube. They look like the type of fork that Schwinn used, but I think Schwinn used a shorter head tube. If I...

    2 finds. A Firebolt and a Huffman WF I think.

    I found a Columbia Firebolt! The guy had it repainted and did a nice job with the chain guard. The rear wheel had some slip so I swapped it with another red band I had, it had new Bell tires. I put on some old Goodyears. The pedals were black with little red stripes, I had a set of black with...

    JC Higgins Bicycle stolen

    I can ony hope he dumps a bunch of cash into it, and it get stolen. If I ever see it it I will just take it back. Since I'm moving he will never find me. I may even leve a note thanking him for fixing it. I just hope he keeps it, if he sells it and I take it I'm no better than him. Since I never...
