My first bike in a WHILE, i use it as a commuter around town, if I’m not getting on the highway I almost always ride my bike. I got the frame off craigslist and it does not fit me, but I can switch frames later. I usually run a front brake, I’m not too worried with looking cool, I’d rather have it than not.
Parts:
- 74ish Schwinn Le Tour 25″ frame (Panasonic)
- Weinmann DP18’s white/black/black Flip flop fixed/fixed
- Formula 16T Cog w/ Dura Ace lockring
- ACS Claws 18T Freewheel, getting rid of it for an 19t fixed cog
- SRAM GXP single speed crankset and bottom bracket 48T
- KMC Chain
- Charge Spoon Cromo saddle
- Origin 8 Pedals … Garbage IMO
- Continental ULTRA Sport 23’s
- White cork bar tape
The Purple on the forks is nowhere near that bright in real life.

you say that front brake works? Nice bike anyhow.

No sir, I did not say that.
Waiting for the paint to dry, hence “usually”.
Thank you for the compliment, I know what you meant.

Ha ha…
I know what you mean about the “purple” on the forks. I have a RED bike and every time I take a pic, it turns out orange, and the bar tape looks pink.
And I usually always run two brakes…mostly. (always) Unless of course, I am painting it.
good talk.

Nice Lakers bike. Looks like you need new white tape though.

Fun to look at. It reminds me of a colorful parrot. Nice.

a bar mount brake lever and new purple bar wrap, my only recommendations.
