Last week I got a good deal on on Schwinn Le Tour frame and fork, free, in really good shape. I've been wanting to change up my beater/grocery getter and figured this would be perfect to build around since I have most of the parts and can cannibalize my old beater.

So I was repacking the headset and pulled the stem and handlebar assembly off the old bike and go to put it on the Le Tour. Dohhhhhh, this thing has that narrow diameter fork, time for plan B. Luckily in my brothers parts stash that is in my garage there was a nice chrome fork, not sure the make but it has campy dropouts, that fits fine. Luckily my plan includes going with newer 700c wheels instead of the old 27" steel wheels from the old beater.
