These 1940’s klunker bikes became some of the first “mountain bikes” and under these legendary pilots, the MTB was born. There are a few pieces I wanted for the bike that I never got around to buying. One is a working horn schwinn tricycle that fits inside the tank, and operates from the chrome button on the side. The other, is a great looking tail light that is made to fit perfectly on the rear rack. It closely matches the look of the original bike.
Definitely was a Schwinn Fleet though, I know that much. When our shop re-opens to the public following the coronavirus outbreak, we’ll be happy to discuss options for fit customization, upgrades, and accessories. Several years ago, California cyclists adapted the word “cruiser” to their world of sandy beaches, and enjoyed riding old
balloon-tired bikes along the ocean’s edge. Warranty Thank you for your interest in the products and services of My Company (change this). In conclusion, it’s heavy, hard as hell to ride, but damn if it isn’t one of the coolest bikes in my fleet.

In my mind, it is on the market for sale every day of the week. I am constantly thinking a ride down the boardwalk in Pacific Beach with a for sale sign, would garner many potential buyers. One other thing that I considered is a Nexus 7-speed rear hub. There were two cruisers in the shop with the hubs, and I just loved the way they rode. Shifting through the gears was very Ferrari like. One gear is just not enough for anything but level riding.
The durable Schwinn cantilever steel frame has been updated with tubular leading axle front fork and cushioned hand grips. It’s designed for comfortable riding with a padded saddle and wide whitewall tires that ride smooth over almost any terrain. The Cruiser 5 has

A couple of blue dice caps for the valve stems are a nice touch. Red, white, and blue handlebar streamers seemed to go with the style of the times. Installing a large, chrome Bermuda bell was one way to alert other riders that I was near. A blinking rear light for the seat post was my requirement, even if it looked out-of-place. If somewhat understated, yet functional comfort is what you’re looking for choose the Schwinn’s standard coaster brake Cruiser. Whitewall balloon tires and Electro-forge cantilever frame.
Cruisers are great for around the neighborhood or at the beach.

There is something very appealing about a handmade bicycle and the way that these bespoke frames often break away from the norm with unique shapes and styling. It was during this hunt that I stumbled upon Mone Bikes. Mone builds some stunning handmade frames and components, but it was his rebuild of a 1962 Schwinn twin bar that tipped me over from a casual fan to completely obsessed. This thing was too cool, hacked up rear end for shorter stays, beautiful gold brass gobs of brazing at all the key joints, handmade parts galore, tan minions…I was in love.
