          Just picked this up as a project bike for my wife. Gonna be singlespeed, white frame, possibly green, maybe blue highlights(canti pulls, skewers, etc).

              Haha awesome! I love having this bike to tinker on. My buddy has one that is also very similar, I think Schwinn must have used the same frames for a bunch of different bikes lol.



              I made a little progress on mine today. Hit the chrome areas with Never-Dull, boy that stuff is AMAZING!

                      I picked up this Specialized Hardrock Disc 29er a few months ago. I have been having a blast on it so far. Decent for riding on the roads and it does very well on trails. No complaints from this entry level rider.

                      My previous build (currently E30-less)

                        ^ I can't wait to get out on my Dad's 29er and see what it's like.

                        BTW, does anyone have any good websites to get cheap fixie/singlespeed parts? I'm looking for a crankset, wheels, flip-flop hub, and fixed gear...

                          youve prolly already checked but craigslist will be your best bet, I got my wheels with the flip-flop hub for 70 bucks
