I'll post this pic one more time. It's a Schwinn 7 Speed Jaguar that I bought as crank,frame & forks. Found a donor GT MTB for the rest. Fitted high-pressure street tires. The result worked better than it should have. One of the few bikes I've sold that I regret selling.

Guy who bought it didn't ride it nor haggle. He saw it and fell in love.
