Default 1950 Schwinn Bomber

Here are some better pics of my 1950 Schwinn 5-speed in it's current form...
I did a lot of tuning mods to it... It loves running at WOT!!!
This is currently my favorite bike to ride.

Hi,
Thats a 5-speed stick shifter from a old school Sting Ray... You can't see the gears in the pics, but I converted the bike to a 5-speed!

Also... I'll post a good pic of the front disc.

I always admire your work.

Congratulations on another creative build.

I have some questions on how you do some of your work, yes, I want to copy some of what you have done.

Best wishes and keep it going.
