I didn't care for President Bush, but I did like the fact that he's an avid cyclist.
Next week, I'm going to take a photo-op bike ride with the deputy mayor of my town and the "village president" of the neighboring town.
And please, let's not discuss politics.

Gz Spirit Bicycle
I just got this yesterday afternoon. The sticker says Gz Spirit Bicycle, but I can't find it in the web.
It's size 18" and just in case you're familiar with this model kindly reply. Will be looking for hop-up accessories to give it a new look.

Emom Mamachari
Got this mamachari without the baby carrier. Front wheel is 22 x 1 3/8 and rear is 26".
I'll try to fit my reserve carrier and see how it fits. Will also post images after the installation.

Bikes: brigestone 27" 6spd
dito kasi sa malabon maraming trader ng japanese bicycles to include tires. Sometimes nakakakuha sila sa importer ng brand new at slightly used. Timing lang kung may available na nasama sa container.
Try mo quiapo sometimes may sourcing sila ng japanese tires. So far taiwan at china made ang available dito like wanda, cst, at other unknown brands. For me cst (chen shin tires) will do. So far the tires that i was able to get were million and national. The ones you see mounted on my bikes.

i would like to share my experience with the wanda white wall tire 27"x1-3/8". I weigh 215lbs so i figure it is a good test of any bike tire. I have been using these wanda for around 3 months. They have performed well. These are china made i think. I am satisfied. I bought it in malabon.
Kind regards

It is not an original Schwinn stock MTB. I just traded one of my commuter bicycle with an alloy frame (Schwinn). I dismantled my Peugeot cruiser and instead replaced it with the alloy frame. So the components are not Schwinn stock parts.

Cat Eye
Since Cat Eye bicycle accessories are found on most bicycles, it might be of interest the variety of accessories I had installed on my bicycles.
Reflectors
Spoke Reflector
Fender Reflectors
Frame Mounted
Rear Tail Lights
