late 80's schwinn le tour single speed/fixed gear - $250

Description

  I'm aiming to offer my bike that I have actually made use of as a commuter for the previous 4 years. I obtained the bike as a road bike with equipments, but decided to go the single speed route as it's super inexpensive to preserve and fixie skidz yo. It has actually been kept inside the entire time that I have possessed it and rarely is it made use of during the rain due to the fact that I have another bike with fenders. As you can see from the pictures it looks like bare metal, however I have clear covered it. I used Dupli-color automotive clear coat and a paint gun and gave it a thick coat and need to stay rust free for a very long time. Any rust you see on the frame is just some oxidized metal that will not spread any additional. I just put new handlebar tape on it and a brand-new chain. The components are better and lighter then exactly what you would find on a pre-built single speed you would purchase online. The bike will certainly come with one set of 700 X 23c tires and one set of 700x30c cyclocross tires. The rear wheel is a flip flop center with a 16 tooth free coaster and a 16 tooth taken care of gear. The cranks are Vuelta, like the rims, and have a 47T chain ring. The bottom bracket has been changed with a Shimano BB-UN55 sealed bottom bracket, so it runs extremely smooth. The saddle is a comfy Bontrager affinity saddle. The only con of the bike is the ideal pedal has a small creek but absolutely nothing a little grease can not repair. Otherwise the bike is sound that flights remarkably well for an older bike, and its light. I weighed it and came in around 22 lbs. This is due to not being an American made Schwinn and the steel is much greater quality than most other single speed conversions. I'm 5 '10 ish and the frame is a little huge for me but has actually worked magnificently considering that I've owned it. If you have any questions let me understand at five-six-three-.

  The worst offer is no offer so do not hesitate to shoot me one. Likewise no trades kindly and I understand that the front tire is on in reverse, simply took it put it on quick after cleaning the rim.
