Another Schwinn is done!
This one is a bit less fancy than the Peloton. I built it up as a 10 Over 8 Shimergo century machine.
-1989 25" Schwinn Prelude in the "Evel Knievel/Captain America/French Tricolore" scheme.
-Obtained in a horsetrade with @
wrk101.
Drivetrain: Veloce 10 speed shifters, 6400 FD, Tiagra 4600 Rd, SRAM PG850 cassette, IRD Impala-C 50/34 crankset with new FSA rings, Dura-Ace 7700 hubs laced to Mavic Open Pros. Fat Vittoria Zaffiro 28 tires as place-holders. I'm getting a bit of rub on the fork crown, so I'll be swapping them for 25's.
Bars are Scott Drop LF. Stem's a de-badged Profile Design unit. Post is the original LaPrade type. Brakes are Taiwanese Ebay two-tone specials, most likely made by Tektro. Saddle is a turbo clone, tape is Fizik, Jagwire cable kit, pedals are Crank Brothers Candy C and the cages are Deltas.
Initial impression is "classic lugged butted chromoly all-day rider with non-exotic geometry." I'll give it 50 miles to compare it with the Paramount and Pelotons after I put some better rubber on it. I haven't weighed it but I suspect it's about 23 lbs.
