What bike did you work on today?

I painted and fitted the truss rods and the head badge to La Fugazi yesterday. Is this a Murray or Westfield fork? I believe its from a prewar lady’s Elgin.

I got the chain guard painted today. The lines aren’t perfect but its my first go at doing this and I’m pleased with the results. I did a test run on an old electra guard and it worked out well. I began removing the tape after 5 minutes as the paint was already touch dry. Just the fenders left to do now.

I picked up this 1957 Schwinn Starlet last fall. Matt and I got it put together today and took it out for a ride around the neighborhood. As it goes, Schwinn‘s do not disappoint- What a great ride! special thanks and shout out to Josh @All bikes for the front rim and perfect patina’d fenders we picked up at Memory lane in the spring, and to Brian @detroitbike for the fantastic tires!

Put some fenders on my American today. Also switched out the army green Torrington bar for a Scout bar. Not dialed in, but evolving. Thanks @freddy

I picked this bike up today. It has been passed around much since i first saw it at ML in April. It has wrong handlebars (which i corrected today), wrong saddle, a few dents and holes in the fenders, needs the lower bracket serviced, same with the head tube and general cleanup. Today i did the handlebars and will work on the fenders and rest of the bike over the next week or two. It will be a good mate for the second bike shown that i already had

26” 1979 Schwinn Spitfire… this beauty has been in a shed for years by the original owner. I acquired it and took it all apart to detail, polish and service every peace of it. The chrome looks amazing under all the years of dust buildup.
