  1. Here are the Schwinn's that my wife and I ride around our neighborhood for exercise. "It's never too late to have a happy childhood".

    I've got a bike. You can ride it if you like.
    It's got a basket, a bell that rings and
    Things to make it look good.

    I rock an October 1968 Schwinn Typhoon when I'm too drunk to drive to the 7-11.

    Single speed, coaster brakes, and a rock hard seat that bottoms out when I have a 12 pack or more in my backpack.

    GT used to make a Dyno series of bikes that were sweet. My wife and I both have one. Her's is a sweet blue with black scallops.
    Here's a pic of mine...VonFranco edition called the "Taboo Tiki". It even has a Tiki idol on the front fender that lights up....sweeeet.
    They tend to sell for more now than when new.

    I helped my dad get his schwinn black phantom running a few years back. Beautiful bike but dang near a hundred bucks new back in the 50's. I've got a mid to late 40's western flyer skip tooth chain persons saddle and a pair of carslile blackhawk tires. Check BikeRodNKustom.com (think thats the site) for some really wild ideas.

    Here's a couple that I built this past winter and spring:

    The first one, an early Schwinn straightbar that apparently is a big deal cause I've gotten people upset about cutting it up:

    I have a Diamondback Della Cruz 2.0. It's pinstriped from the factory and it is a 7 speed. I bought it to go to bonneville but had to cancel my trip. I still love the bike though. I got mine a GI Joes on sale for about 250.
