Here is a Schwinn Ridge I traded a junk Huffy I found in the trash, That got turned into ex-girlfriends commuter. She was riding some new chinese manufactured 100ib steel step threw cruiser with a realy cheap 3speed coaster brake. Not a very fun or practical bike for Seattle.
She bought all the new parts and me being the nice guy boyfriend painted and put it together. It no longer has the plane jane black fork on it. Has a set of 100mm Manitou Black w/ lock out forks, that have been rebuilt, and I painted the lowers the same matt purple as the frame. This bike started at 32ibs, when all said and done we were just about 22-23, Most of the weight was in the junk forks, steel stem,steel bars, crap cranks, junky derailurs, ad cant forget those steamy heaps of Schwinn"quality" tires
Almost forgot. Thanks Justin at PorkChop for all the bling!
