So, after the subject came up in a recent thread, brockd15 and I discussed trading my 23" Schwinn Prelude for his 25" Raleigh Super Course. It was a mutually beneficial trade I think, because both the bikes are pretty nice but the Prelude was a shade too small for me and the Super Course was a bit to big for Brock. He brought up the idea of a trade and we completed the deal this morning. I'll miss the Prelude, but now I have a new bike to tinker with and tune in.

The original owner had a problem with the rear derailleur so Brock put a Suntour aR on the bike. I happened to have an aRX that matches the original derailleur so I slapped that on.
