Really wanted one of those but in the “Orange Crush” version, but ended up with a 10 speed instead. More gears

Me too. But probably couldn't afford it back then. If I remember they were about $89 where as a new non-Schwinn was about $59 at the time or something.

I got the clone model... But I turned out okay.... Uh, didn't I?...

Went back to see what you & Old Guy were drooling over

Dad told ma about this bicycle he bought back in 1950 or maybe 51, was a Black Phantom by Schwinn....seemed like it was 50 or 60$, can’t remember right off. But had a paper route & saved up his money to buy

He can still to this day tell you every detail about it

I’ll have to ask this morning otw to work about the year & cost

Kids today probably wish for the coolest phone... back then it was the bike

3 12s so far this week. I'm out of here before noon....

I really wish they'd let me have some OT every now and again, but I get it. A start-up never has much $$ to begin with. I'm just glad they didn't include 'stock options' in the compensation, they've cleared the investment table at least 3 times since I've been here....

I HAD almost 20k in shares that had been granted to me, but those got wiped away during the first 'reorganization'. Oh well...

2nd wheel about ready to be powder coated. Still need to get started on the oven hood. Going to need to call in some two armed help to get that built but I'm getting closer to cooking my first wheel. Hope to test a wheel by the end of next month depending on how much I can use my arm

DON'T over do it on the arm. Because you will be back to square one.
