If you are unable to find the rear reflector I have one that might fit. You can have it no charge.

I am working on one right now. Please, what size socket do you use for that back fender, I can't seem to fit it.
@FeatherstoneBicycles 9 күн бұрын
Thanks for watching! Do you mean where the fender attaches to the tab coming off the bottom bracket or where it attaches to the cross brace that also attaches the back brake?

Why dont you take the airpump to help you remove it
@FeatherstoneBicycles 11 күн бұрын
Yes, that would be easier...if the air compressor was in the basement (where my bike shop is). Unfortunately it's out in the garage where it gets more use!

Good one. I had no idea the rear sprocket assembly would be so complicated. You explanation helps shed light on why and how Shimano made this weird system. Thanks for sharing this video! I think it will be the definitive guide on how how to service these parts.

I learned to true wheels from an absolute mechanical pro! He began in bicycles in the 1960's and is still in the bicycle repair business today. Truing a wheel sounds simple, but not always. 👍

From experience, quick-glo was the best chrome cleaner/polish there was for the good chrome on the vintage Schwinns... but sadly, the company went bottoms up not to long ago. 👍

Good one. I like to see older wheels brought back to great condition. Some of them, even from low end bikes of the day, are pretty nice and will spin forever if greased up and adjusted properly. I look forward to seeing how the rear wheel works out. I pulled a mid 1980s Panasonic commuter bike out of the garbage last year and it had that front freewheel system too. I didn't know how to take the rear wheel apart so I just pulled the cones back a bit and injected some grease in there and called it good.

Recommended ...when rejuveting these vintage schwinns you really need to plan ahead for parts, ie: cables, headset- bottombracket- hub bearing parts, derailleurs...the list goes on. Especially this project with rare and almost obsolete avability of unusual items! 🙂

My high school had a fleet of Schwinn Varsitys in the late 70s for use in gym class. We rode those things down the concrete steps (about 70 of them) leading to the football field. Never had a single problem with the wheels. Those things weren't bullet proof, they were nuke proof.
@FeatherstoneBicycles 3 ай бұрын
If only there were cell phones back then...what a KZfaq video that would make! Amen to the nuke proof. That is exactly why I reuse all of the old parts, including the ball bearings and cages. Their quality compared to what you get today is no match. Indestructible!

Kudos to you for your rejuvenating hobby/projects that require skill, patience, elbow grease and dedication... l know this because my very first job in 1980, as a teenager and into my early 20's was working at a Schwinn/Ross/Raleigh dealership as a assembler of new and rebuilder or used bicycles. Brought back great memories of the business, co-workers, and customers from 3yrs to 88 years old, who enjoyed pedal power!!! 🚲

Wow, great experience. As we progress along you will see I run into an issue with the Shimano (I called it Schwinn in the video) FF System. I won't spoil it, but maybe when we get there you might be able to offer some insight! Thanks for watching!
@davidtexter913 3 ай бұрын
@FeatherstoneBicycles the ff system came out when I worked, I remember for the most part, they worked quite well, just new and odd. Over the years Shimano has come up with many ideas that either worked or drastically failed. The FF was designed for the Casual Rider who had difficulty remembering to pedal when shifting🤔😁. I'm following you now, so if this old boy remembers anything that can help, I'll pass it along! 👍

Where did you get the Sunset Orange handlebar tape? I’ve been trying for quite some time to find some.
@FeatherstoneBicycles 3 ай бұрын
It was in with 9 other rolls I bought at a swap meet (for $10...$1/roll, what a bargain!). I recently had to break down and but a roll of another color off ebay. I'm embarrassed to tell you what I had to pay for it. The biggest issue for you is that Hunt Wilde made several different colors of orange, so if the seller doesn't specifically state it is sunset, it would be best to ask them (and make sure they accept returns).

You might want to invest in an ultrasonic parts cleaner. I did, and had great results with dirty bicycle parts.
@FeatherstoneBicycles 5 ай бұрын
A parts cleaner is definitely on the wish list...along with many other items! But I'm leaning more towards the bigger (non-ultrasonic) type because I do some small engine repair as well and need the extra capacity.
