Description

Make Your Schwinn Krate Ride Great. 375 pages of pictures and info to guide you through repairing and tuning your Schwinn Krate, Sting-Ray, Fastback, Manta-Ray, Fair Lady, etc. This is the definitive book for those who want to wrench on their own bikes and make them ride better than when they rolled out of the dealership back in the day.
The pictures tell the story. A ridiculous amount of information and tweaks and tips and mods to get your project Schwinn riding great again. Even those bikes that were hung in the basement for the last half a century, untouched, slumbering, the time capsule bikes; yes even these bikes need mechanical attention. Grease dries out and evaporates, so does oil, and not every bike left the dealership with correct bearing adjustment ('cause hey, they were selling them as fast as they could build them some years). Lots of pictures, large print text, basic bike concepts made easy.
Make your old Schwinn banana seat bikes ride as awesome as they look. Or make your rat Schwinns fast and solid. Make Ignaz proud.
