As you can tell by the snowy scene, this 1980 Schwinn Continental sent in by Hugh has been sitting in the bottom of my inbox for quite some time. So with out further ado, here she is in all her retina-searing glory.
Hey Cameron,
I just finished this bike and thought I would send it along. I found it at one of the local Thrift-Stores it was 20.00 After seeing some of Lauren’s bikes, I was inspired to try using some yellow tires with matching Saddle and Cork. I had my doubts going in, But now I`m a believer! I think there will be some more bikes with color matching tires in my future. The build went real good till somehow my rehabilitated rear wheel got mysteriously damaged. Luckily I had a pretty good match in the my stock of old wheels. However, it is now a 12 speed (for the time being anyway).
Cheers, Hugh
Thanks Hugh
