Smashin 707:thumbsup: Welcome to Two Spoke, I'm quite sure you will find the help you need to fix your bike, a lot of good(and a few crazy, like me) bike fanatics on this forum, with a lot of good information and VERY willing to help. I have learned a great deal since I been here, and thats been less than a month... What College you goin to? (I'm a west coast grad (USC).) DrB
Sweet! sounds great, need to learn a few things! Currently attending sonoma state university, in the 707 region!
nope havent found anything to help with my shwinn traveler III. its 30yrs old dunno if that maybe the problem. trying to find a bike repair manual for old bikes, interested in fixing oldies. and possibly making my baby a fixie but dunno. just want to get my hands a little dirty!
Welcome Little Dude Oops...Schwinn Traveler III - RoadBikeReview Forums Schwinn Lightweight Data Book (1979 Gallery/Traveler III)
AW man, you was my hero, thought you just had that information at hand.(just kiddin) Still, you had to care to take the time, I'm sure he appreciates it, just wanted you to know someone noticed you doing a good deed. DrB
I just can't believe what you can find in Google. How you doing Doc. Big workout today with Yoga, I am sore and I will have the DOMS tomorrow. Ride with the chURch group tomorrow if it stops raining long enough. Got to go out, you'll be in bed when I get back. Looks like Oakland is going to lose.
They usually do, not a big raider fan, more of a college football fan.... USC trojans fight on.... How did your ride with the church group go? DrB
thanks burr! that data book is going to come in handy! something to do over this nice holiday weekend! Dean: there isnt a story behind the 707. its just were i am at right now in my life, which is in the rohnert park/cotati(CA) area. the 707 is just the area code! and smashin is just a slang word for going uncontrollably fast (but still in control). haha Thanks guys! there is work to be done!
