Here's some pics of my current Schwinn Varsity Rebuilding project. What started out as a cheap plan for a winter training bike has now progressed into 3 bikes with the following plan for each:
1. Vintage restoration of 1973 Schwinn Varsity
2. Restoration of 1974 Schwinn Varsity into winter training bike with frame mods to accept todays 700c wheels and powder coat.
3. Restoration of 197? Schwinn ?? into single speed around town fun bike and powdercoat.
It's a long story how this project went from 1 bike to 3, but it's definately a lot of fun fixing up old Schwinn's and learning about Electro Forged frames and general Schwinn history.
Above are some in-progress pics of the Vintage bike, NOS yellow bar tape on order and still a few minor things to do yet, but nearly rideable.
