Title: Couple of builds finished - ish
Post by: Frosty on June 09, 2007, 07:32 PM
I have rebuilt a Schwinn Predator Team Alloy, it is an 83 bike and is stock (except the grips) down to the tyres and the factory inspection sticker on the drop out. The missus will be using this as a rider if she can be arsed!!

Next up is my Hauler (supposed to be my OSSS racer, looks like it will have to be winter series ride) that I have just cleaned the f+f up and was happy to see chrome was in very good condition. It has been built up with mainly used parts, except the brake lever, cable and victor dx's that have been mostly stripped of a horrid blue colour!!!

keep it simple and it will look great. you've done exactly that. chrome and blue is an excellent combination  :daumenhoch: are those schwinn predators the ones with the flared tubes?
