Yes, no problem.
You're doing a great job. Keeping my eye on this since my son rides a blue 594 daily and loves it. He's been thinking about a repaint, etc. lately.
Basically the same bike but for the fork. I think he has 700x 28's on his...

I just found out the traveler could have a freewheel or an HG freehub
mine has the HG freehub thats the one that the last sprocket cog threads onto the hub so I have to look at that.Ive had less problems building cars

rear wheel is absolutely fubar. I wish I could post a video to show how egg shaped it is.

Great project! I had a lowly Schwinn 434 I found at a garage sale in college. Cheap, stiff and fast, was a lot of fun on the smooth streets of Tempe, AZ.

totally agree! I bought my first one as a frame I took all the parts off my Schwinn premis that were salvageable after I got hit by a car and then I rode that 564 until I had to sell it. That’s why I’m building this one because this day I’ve never been happy I let it go.to Its a real shame schwinn went walmart.
