Mt. San Antonio aka Mt. Baldy

If we could just be like Pete ? Just get one more bicycle and everything will be perfect ? For some it’s a Schwinn, others a Colson, or even a Shelby ! Having a Dayton or CWC will get you a hot librarian ?

Mr. Day, What snow capped mountain is that ?

Dondy for $100

Yes Fordmike skipped a whole year 🙌 from posting swap updates here From May 2023 to March 2024, someone was on vacation ?!

It’s really simple, he could be one of us 🙌 It’s a given that bike collectors are strange people, Jello Biafra is strange people, therefore we can conclude Jello could be a bike collector. Yes the Monty Python Witch fallacy strikes again.

You’re right, brain fade here trying to remember when I last saw a 36 SD Autocycle or 37. I seem to remember the cantilever SD autocycles much better. With further thought, this is a BROWN pogo seat which we all know came only on the Mead Ranger Super Deluxes, so what year did Mead start...

Don’t try to clean the chain guard or top tube letters .

The paint and patina are awesome imho. If it has the guts and no lens it $ 200 plus. Chrome isn’t everything . . .

Saw this today and thought someone would like to see these pics here ?! The SoCal Edison Nightshift in Downtown LA 111 years ago

A recent acquisition, lots of patina and character !

I saw that. These are heavy with that base plate. Thats why Im asking for a locally sourced.

Looking for local to SO CAL, a Schwinn or Park DUAL or SINGLE clamp bike shop floor repair stand. Not the bench mounted. I missed out on my Local Bike Shop going out of business sale. Didn’t even know they were selling out until it was too late. Please respond thru CABE messaging. Thanks

Here is that last Schwinn Chicago headquarters and Schwinn Family Bicycle collection building that John #SchwinnSalesWest mentioned.

Only the lonely 1935 Schwinn DD Cycleplane in Red and Black

Can anyone who knew Doc tell us more about his life and legacy in the vintage bicycle world ? A mini bio obituary please 🙏 Thank you sarmis luters

One of 3 Stingrays I have, my favorite, a 1964 Coppertone Stingray Deluxe that just glows at night !

Thanks for the clarification GT. So the cantilever production at the Chicago factory existed for 45 years.

One of my favorite Prewar Schwinn items. Original catalog artwork in gouache of one the early catalog cantilever models with the non Autocycle decal. The Schwinn cantilever design was the epitome of bicycle frame design from a styling and engineering perspective. It began in 1937 and ended...

Y’all had enough beans !

Happy Thanksgiving to to the Tankfull and Tankless ! Enjoy your holiday weekend to the fullest, build those new projects and finish your old projects !

That is your interpretation Lobsterman

This is gold ! Proof that Schwinn was going to have a regular “single speed” Klunker ! It just never got made or they did it in house or in company photos ?

$175

Let Jafco have or buy this seat so he can replicate it 🙌 It would be a great opportunity for the hobby to have this seat

$230

Would love to see your bicycle collection someday Catfish

Thanks Tyler Pictures like this and the very idea there was a Mexican Schwinn badge blows my mind. I appreciate all things Mexico, the people, the FOOD, the culture, the land, the flora and fauna ! What makes the Euzkadi badge appealing to other collectors, will those reasons be similar to...

Marty, Dust off your parts and have Tom paint a bike around your new badge ! You know it belongs on a bike . Viva Euzkadi !

$140 for the Dondy

I’ve been into plants for over 30 years. These include cycads, cacti, euphorbia, tree aloes, dudleyas and caudiciform succulents. Most of these in my collection are non native succulents and gymnosperms. I also have plants and succulents native to the New World. The only other people I’ve seen...

Can you share how you found this Unicorn 🦄 ? Thx 🙏

Here is one originally sold from Smiths in Lomita but now being auctioned on eBay from NJ. https://www.ebay.com/itm/235056676902?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&customid=link&campid=5335809022&toolid=20001&mkevt=1

That is a mystical patina ! Leave it as is. Just regrease the hubs, hdset and bb. Put on some ridable vintage blackwalls, a new chain and ride it. Some bikes are meant to be left alone, paying homage to the previous owner and the way they left it. This is one ☝️ of those bikes. 🔥 That is a...

Well said Jack !

I’ll do $45 roll of the DONDY on the #2 SCHWINN MAJESTIC badge. This is more fun than the tables at Vegas 🙌

Mark, Light is your friend, get some light on that bomb with that nice backdrop and your pics will pop. 👍

There was recent discussion on frame geometries and some talk of Mountain Bike history of the Mt. Tam pioneers. Alan Bonds was part of that crew and built some “bikes” by refurbishing American prewar frames into these early mountain bikes, called Klunkers. This is his website that is a...

I’ll do $90 for the DONDY, it rhymes with Gumby.

I zoomed in on the pic and rotated it. The blue paper says Road King ??? Mosquito Engine $400 ?

I like cheese 🧀 Trying to make sense of Schwinn grips is fun too 😎

I’ll do $85.00 for the Dondy
