I live for the CABE
Another Opinion
I collect and work on alot of different things. Balloon Tire Bicycles of all kinds, Harley Davidson Motorcycles 1940's &50's, antique chainsaws, John Deere Tractors, and I am a mechanic. The bikes I find best to work on are the Schwinns. I do a fair amount of riding on them as well, I live in an area with some hills and when your cranking an old Ballooner up them you feel all different kinds of flexing from the different makes. The Schwinns seem to be build better, and engineered better. I do like Daytons and Colsons as a second choice. Alot of the others seem like cookie cutter bikes that were just produced to get them out the door and to the retailer. My favorite rider is a 1936 Autocycle with Pogo Seat.
Schwinn is to Bicycles Like:
Harley Davidson is to Motorcycles
John Deere is to Tractors
Cadillac is to Cars
