The Chrome Cruiser

• 1982 Genuine Schwinn Cruiser frame (made in Chicago), chrome plated (owned since 1993)
• This bicycle was once my primary commuting/touring bike, but has been replaced in this job by my other cruiser
• Since its "retirement", this bike has since been fully refitted to be the ostentatious hunk of chrome you see above
• 26" wheels, IRC Metro 2.0 street tires
• Shimano Nexus 7-speed hub
• big chrome Wald fenders
• Big steel baskets front and rear
• 6V 5W headlight
• All the cool accessories -
  • colored spoke covers
  • handlebar streamers
  • Blackburn triceratops seat bag
  • Schwinn Approved Ding-Dong Bell
  • and a dancing squeaky hula girl up front!
