    If you could restore a bike to look NOS

    Great post-- lots of spilled blood. I got my knife out so here goes. Herder, hoarder, or restorer. Do you have a junkyard, a stable of runners or a display of show bikes/originals. I have all three. If the bike is a donor with missing parts--no choice. It would be a heartbreaker and...

    Schwinn Phantom With Rare Approved Extras

    I know that the chain guard says, "Panther". Where can I get a replacement decal? Two things are rare: front pinch breaks and a two speed controlled by hand. 1955 I think. Note the German WWI cartridge cases back of the saddle and the duck horn that was standard on early Schwinns?. The...

    Stolen bicycles!

    Stolen bicycles!

    Feds want to take over local zoning so low income housing can be built in our parks. China wants to kill the dollar as the world's currency so we lose 1/2 of our value and our lifestyle like the Brits did when he world went off the pound sterling. Theft is looked on as equalizing society...

    Latest Part Of David's (Mr Monark) Whizzer Special Build

    This is the spreader that we invented and needed-- left and right threads. The end adjusters (not shown) adjust the axle but threading them through as the frame end wings while the frame is spread apart is difficult. A frame spreader will be made or found before a flat. We make and share our...
