With the days now longer I'm able to go for rides after the gym & dinner now! Daughter had a lot of fun while going around the neighborhood. Calling out the car colors was the highlight of her ride. I'm thinking about buying a new seat as this one provides little to no padding. Boy this thing...

So like I said earlier I was able to head over to the "open shop" Thursday night. They were very helpful in showing me how to do the shifting & brake cables. The volunteer helping me was able to show me a few tips & tricks I didn't know about. While working on the bike's cables I noticed a lot...

Sorry about the loss of your father. His bike looks like it was kept in fantastic condition and I'm sure he'd be proud of what you're doing with it. I personally like the look of both seat options you have. Try them on the bike, see what they look like and take a seat to see which you like...

With Spring hopefully right around the corner I'm planning to order some components very soon. So far I have the following on my list: Handlebar - Origin8 Urban-Pro Riser Handlebar, 25.4mm, Silver Brake Levers - Need help understanding which will work with center pull brakes (I don't want to get...

Got a lot put back together. Small items left are: All Cables Chain & Derailleur Tape Handlebars

First post. I was directed here from another forum I belong to. Friday I picked up this Scwhinn from a local non-profit called "Newark Bike Project". My goal is to mostly clean and replace worn parts. I'd like to have a bike I can use with a bike seat to carry my daughter around in (she'll be 2...
