Tammy D’s Huffy Omni 10

Posted

Welcome bicycling neophyte, Tammy D and her Huffy Omni 10. Hope you like blue…

I saw your site when I was looking for how to secure the gear & brake cables to this bike I bought a few years ago at a garage sale for $1… also info on how to use the shifting mechanism. I understand the whole transmission idea with cars, but bikes always baffle me. I am not good at riding them, horses no problem, bikes- oh yeah- big time. Anyway I thought you’d like to see a pic of this one… I bet it even has orig tires as well as the seat…

    Tammy Welcome! Love the light blue accents – saddle, bar wrap and tires on this bike. For a good place to start for all things old bike, and gears in particular, check out http://sheldonbrown.com/gears.html by the late great Sheldon Brown. His site is a a cornucopia of bike knowledge. Good luck with your Huffy project

    Tammy,
    I think here at this site you will always find an admirer/fan to all things biking in general. (Cameron/OTS make all feel welcomed here, high-end to low-end and everything in between)
    I can find something good in all bikes; especially the old, odd and funky.
    I have somewhat of an obsession with off-the-wall tires, and those blue gum walled beauties on your Huffy are no exception–simply Marvelous.
    That huge front reflector that looks like it came off of a Studebaker–awesome.

    Finally, some sweet, department store bling-idity. I hope you enjoy riding it as much as I enjoyed seeing it. Thanks!

    Well you can teach an old dog new tricks, but this has always been a challenge for me… My son loves riding his bike and its a great activity we get to do when I feel brave 🙂

    Those blue gum-walls look pretty fancy for original equipment but they do match the saddle and bar tape. I think I’m developing a case of tire envy…

    What is the tire size?
