I picked up a Schwinn World for my coworker last month. It had some touch up spray paint on the top tube and lots of black splatter over spray. A friend wet sanded the frame and painted it with a blue metallic paint. I upgraded the drop bars, brake levers, crankset, and RD. The saddle, cables, housings, pedals, and tires are new. It's a 48cm - the coworker is about 5' tall.
