Introducing Mr. Randall's newly-singled schwinn "something-or-another"


(ps I know thats not the best way to run the tensioner, but for the moment we're using 17 and 20 tooth freewheels, and the difference is too great to run it in the 'push up' position. i just found an 18 tooth on CL for $6, so hopefully we'll score than and this thing'll be ready for some sweet single track and derby action....something K is known for)

we picked up the wheels and singleator super cheap at the swap, a freewheel from hurlio, with a chainring, stack bolts, v-brakes, cable housing, bars and a little blood, sweat, and tears from me and voila!
(chain, cables and pads from the FW)


its by far lighter than anything in my garage, which means its going to be even harder too keep up with this guy.

and in case you haven't born witness....


here is the new baby......



to date, the cranks, bottom bracket, rings, pedal, seat, seatpost, tape, and "brifters" have all been upgraded.



though its already evident that the tape wont be staying white for very long......

wheels are on the wishlist, as are some panaracer fire-cross 45's

White tape is a bastard...everytime I build a bike with white tape I leave it covered during the test ride and strip it when its done being tested.
