Zach’s 1984 Schwinn Traveler

Posted

With Mustache Monday right around the corner, I thought it appropriate to show off a fine mustache right here and now. Dig the curvy, shiny mustache on Zach’s gigantic 1984 Schwinn Traveler.  Thank god for people like Zach who know how to properly employ a BOS! Without ’em what would we would we do with all these 70something centimeter frames?

greetings from columbus ohio, saved from the thrift store for 40$ in excellent shape, shifters and brakes worked perfectly only needed minor adjustments, looked like it had been barely ever ridden , the frame at a ginormous 26 1/2 inches was almost too big for me but has become my regular commuter,1984 schwinn traveler12 speed, weinmann rims, sugino cranks, suntour ar front and rear deraillers,original seat, swapped the drops for some ultra comfortable mustache bars,

Thanks Zach

    I should post up my world sport. Its an 85.

    I got a World Sport too. But the crank is already gone (donated to a fellow vintage enthusiast). I plan on converting it to a (avert your eyes, faint of heart) fixed gear bike.

    That bike is gorgeous, except for the mustache bars. If you had to change them out, you should have gone to cruiser bars. Just my opinion. But, I have to say, if it’s your daily commuter you gotta make it your own.

    I give this bike 4 out of 5 stars. Very nice.

    P.S. I want to find one like it for $40!

    Ive thought about making my world sport a fixed gear. The main thing is, it is almost exactly like my supercourse, just newer. Same size, same geometry minus a little in the chainstay.

    I’m beginning to believe that Manute Bol is giving away his collection of blue schwinn ten speeds to thrift stores across the country.
