New Schwinn parts arrived

Tuesday, Sep 1. 2009  –  Category: Outdoors

Got a whole bunch of new parts for the Schwinn yesterday… the seatpost (Wald 13/16″) and rail clamp, the saddle (Brooks B17 leather narrow), brakes (Tektro RX 4.1), brake calipers (Pyramid), and bottom bracket (Shimano UN54).

Sadly the brake calipers have way too long a reach… apparently they are 61-94mm. I’m guessing I need about a 50-55mm on the rear and maybe as short as a 40-45 on the front. Gonna have to take measurements tonight and see.
