    What have you been riding lately?

    Something newer today, my M30 from Raleigh. I bought this bike new in 1996 from Staples cycle center in Elmhurst Il. For some reason I never got rid of it and never changed anything, not even the tires. Just maintained it. I still think it’s a nice looking bike. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hi everyone, I'm restoring a Schwinn Starlet for my wife and want to paint it in the white and rose color. I was wondering, is Vintage Schwinn the only place to get paint in the exact color or is there any other paint I can use. I want to do a good restore but I'm finding it a hard pill to...
