First cut of my first attempt at polishing a bike part. (And I do mean 1st attempt. In 40 years of riding and working on bikes, I've not ever done any restoration-type stuff. It's looking like being fun.)

The Schwinn-Approved Normandy Sport front hub as found:



After disassembly and one round of Mother's. Going to do one more and see what I get.


All the steel bits are soaking in vinegar. I just ordered the 3/16" G25 bearings, so rebuild should be tomorrow.
I also got some 1/8" balls for the BSA-style headset, so that'll get done while it's all rainy and stuff.
