1984 Schwinn World Sport - before, as found



Going to use it for my short commute starting monday.
The decals were flaking off at the slightest touch so I took them off completely. Picked up an Origin8 80mm stem with 180mm quill to lift the bars up, a set of practically nos black Dia Compe G500 brakes, wide Nitto Noodles and Microshift brifters for the build. Ignore the wheels they are my go to set off a big box bike until I can get some new ones. I took it out for a longer shakedown run this morning and didn't have to make any adjustments. I really like the way this came together and how smooth the brifters are working. Not sure I like the Brooks for this build, going to try my SMP next time. And yes I know the taillight isn't very effective behind the bag, just haven't gotten around to moving it yet.
