A few picks from a local barn, poor ole 1936 Schwinn Liberty badged motorbike. From the looks of the Frt. END, and the position of the bars, I really think this was used to practice ROPING over the years!!!! LOL

A new take on wide steerhorn bars?

Went through my neighbors 1960 Schwinn middleweight that was customized for her many years ago. Rear hub had a caged bearing that exploded amongst other issues. It sat garaged for about 5 years but after a full service, detail, cleaning and wax it looks and rides great.

Thanks Chris! The paint is very nice but the chrome on the rims isnt!

I noticed that on many Monarks, from the SD down to the Rockets. Chrome quality isn’t great unfortunately.

Finally got some time to tinker with this. Hopefully within the next couple of days she'll be rolling. Hope everyone out there's doing good and staying cool and healthy. Take care of yourselves.

I had been toying with the idea of a coaster front handbrake for this pig bike for a while. Finally did it today!

You, sir, are a true visionary. Thats one bad pig! I love that you worked in that barrel adjuster.

Been in a weird head-space after a funeral this weekend so i spent some time in the garage trying to “decompress”
Had a full vintage can of BOL and decided it was finally time to test out what all the fuss is about!
Tested it out on the 53 Meteor and it looked so amazing i did it on the 39 Firestone!
Man im pleased!
Also straightened a Schwinn razor stem via pipe which i didnt take pics of....
