Outstanding job on that. I especially dig the nod to Japan, with Schwinn having been in cahoots with them since the early 70's. A couple of my favorite fixed gear conversions were Panasonic built Super Lite Chromoly frames.
 
Whoa, my first true bmx bike, a sx1000.View attachment 150461

How many times did your pant leg get caught in the chainring? Hahahahaha!

I can’t tell you how many pair of jeans were made into shorts because of that!

I’m still a little paranoid when I’m forced to ride in ping pants. Hahahahaha!
