Schwinn

These are most of the Schwinn's that have passed through me

Early 1970's Schwinn Collegiate 5 speed
These bikes use a special Schwinn S6 tire that is slighty larger than the english 26x1-3/8
for more info on that check out http://oldbikeblog.blogspot.com/2009/05/schwinn-tire-sizing.html
all the components are heavy duty 'Schwinn approved'

1956 Schwinn Traveler

I believe this is a 1963 Schwinn Continental 10 speed in a nice copper orange
Everything was completely original down to the dry leather saddle

Late 60's Schwinn Continental 10 speed

Early 1970's Schwinn Speedster
3 speed sturmey archer hub, Schwinn S6 rims
Special 26x1-3/8 tires, Dynamo head light and tail light were much newer Schwinn approved

Early 1970's Schwinn Breeze
3 speed sturmey archer hub, Schwinn S6 rims
The hub's on these bikes can be a pain to tune, new cables are highly recommended

late 1960's Schwinn Varsity 10 speed
27x1-1/4 wheels
All original with exception of new cables and tires

Another Schwinn Varsity 10 speed, The chainring guard was removed since it rubbed
against the front derailleur.

1984 Schwinn Traveller 12 speed
Suntour AR derailleurs 27x1-1/4 Rigida rims, Sugino Crankset
