2016 Schwinn Blackwell

Changed-out the freewheel for a Shimano SuperLow 14-34t because of our hills here; the twist shifter for a Shimano Rapid-Fire shifter; the kickstand and handgrips for Salsa bolt-ons, then added LED Teardrop head lights and tail lights. The 26X3 tires and factory saddle make for a smooth and comfortable ride.

Nice looking bike, where did you get it, and how much did it cost, if you don't mind, thanks, Dave.
 
Hi Dave, it was an impulse buy at a "big box" store and cost just over $200-.
 
Some upgrades include a Shimano EM bar end friction shifter mounted onto the lower top bar and painting the headlamp housings flat black but leaving the bezels chromed:
