Roger’s $10 Schwinn World Traveler

Roger got a steal of a deal when he picked up this Schwinn World Traveler for only $10! I like those riser bars—I think they would really look good on Meghan’s too.

Here is a picture of a Schwinn World Traveler I bought for ten bucks. I managed to get one ride out of it before snapping a shift cable. Once the cable, tires, and tubes arrive, and get installed, I’m going to take the bike to work for riding around on my lunch break. I think I’m going to get a new seat as well. This one is pretty well trashed.

    Heh! Actually, I just picked up one of those with the exact paint color. Looks exactly the same, only the chrome isn’t rusted. The cables are shot too. Either way, I’m installing a new freewheel, clipless pedals, an adaptor for 130 bcd chainrings (42t and 56t) new handlebars with new brake levers and hoods, aero bars, new front and rear derailleurs, a Selle Italia or Brooks (I’m not sure, as the brooks is a lot of extra care) saddle, and I tracked down a can of the original paint and some peroid correct alluminum rims. It’s better than buying an entry level bike.
