    What bike did you work on today?

    Update on my JC Higgins I asked on another forum about what color paint to use on the fenders that I want to put on. Most people said to leave them brown. What are your thoughts?
  13. Chilidawg

    What bike did you work on today?

    I’m not a fan of the rust look. I wanted to save the grip and get paint that matched. maybe I can find new ones.
  14. Chilidawg

    What bike did you work on today?

    Why do people abuse bikes like this one? Started the tear down today. Tried to save the grips, but they just crumbed on me. At least it came with 2 almost new tires.

    It is probably someone‘s rat bike project. I pulled the wheels off and they are not original unless they used rims made in France. i will clean it up, paint it and ride it

    Question for Tandem riders

    Recently finished overhauling a 1978 Schwinn Twinn. Tried to ride it with the wife and we were just throwing each other’s balance off. One wanted to pedal and the other wanted to stop. It certainly wasn’t a pleasant experience. Is this normal and just have to grow into it?
  23. Chilidawg

    What does your current project look like now?

    This was a fun project. Hope the wife wants to ride with me. Before after

    I did the same search. The 2 Canadian ones we’re for seat post lights

    Tire sizes - scratching my head

    Maybe in the States. Nobody in Canada stocks them. The problem is the international shipping costs.

    Tire sizes - scratching my head

    The back tire has a 1 inch long split in the middle of the tread, so I thought I would get 2 matching tires.

    Started this Huffy

    Bloody hell. The paint stripper just wouldn‘t cut it. Actually had to wire brush the paint off. Cleaned the paint off the rims. Fixed the dropout. Straightened the forks. Painted the frame red. Just need to get some clear coat. Going to cut the fenders shorter and paint them. I may decide to go...

    Tire sizes - scratching my head

    I never realized how many oddball parts are on these bikes. I am missing a seatpost which is 20.7mm with 5/8 top. Finally found a place to order them that won’t cost me 2x the cost of the part to ship.

    Tire sizes - scratching my head

    I want to replace the rubber on my 1978 Schwinn Twinn tandem. They are 26x1 3/8inch. I bought two new 26 inch tires and they are too small. What am I missing?

    Started this Huffy

    I believe this to be a Huffy Eldorado. To far gone for a restoration. Are these forks salvageable. Can anyone tell me what year this is?

    A couple of questions about a Schwinn Twinn Tandem

    The syncro chain is original to the bike. I was going to replace it but the new chain would not mesh with sprokets.

    A couple of questions about a Schwinn Twinn Tandem

    It was a basket case that I brought back. It had a rusty mess of cables that I stripped off. It is assembled exactly the way I got it except for the adjustment screw, I thought I needed it.

    A couple of questions about a Schwinn Twinn Tandem

    I bought new chains for this bike but only the back chain fits properly the synchro chain is different. Is this an oddball chain? Other problem is the shifter bends as I am changing gears. Did I mess this up?

    I rescued this 1978 Schwinn Tandem

    I hate to see bikes rusting in the garden. Found this Tandem and got it going again. Still needs more work and a few parts. I’ve wanted one of these for a couple of years now. Hopefully the wife is interested in riding it with me. Before After

    Looking for a rear axle for a Schwinn Twinn

    Thank you so much for posting this exploded view. I was having trouble with mine, clunking while pedaling. Took the hub apart and discovered an extra ball bearing that should not have been there. Now it runs smooth.
