Wayne, I think it is a great looking custom build. It looks like quality. If you gave it to me I would do two things;
1. Change out the front cable to a grey housing. Just because I am anal about cable colors and Schwinn never used black!
2. Install the front brake cable through the proper cable clamp that attaches to the springer bolt.
If you don't have these parts available and want to do it I will donate the parts to your build. You pay the shipping just let me know of you want hem as I have them here in my stockpile!
You did an incredibly nice job! Congratulations!

You did an incredibly nice job! Congratulations! Thanks for the complements joe, I totally agree with you on the parts mate. I used what I had, i think the grey brake cable might look out of place as the gear cable is also black but I would definitely use the original cable clip if you have one. Happy to pay for it and shipping costs mate.  |

Good point Wayne, I didn't think about the shifter cable. Can that be changed to grey also? I have extras I believe.

Don't think the gear cable is the same as the schwinn's Joe. I think I will stick with the black ones as they match. |

Very cool looking bike. It looks like you spent a fair amount of time and effort on it, but it paid off. Great job.

Schwinn's are good looking bikes, there's no doubting that |
