Thanks This The Great Low Riders Car , 100% The Best Content ! Hello From Finland and My The Great Car Channel : #Retired4You All The Best to You & Your RU-vid Channel !
Glad to hear that, I should check the tires air pressure and take it out for a spin, itred to look them up a bit further on them and looks like some of them were built up with Columbus tubing ? Not sure so what was going on with that but any-so this or that. Just a proper good looking operating bicycle that’s rides really nicely 🚲🫶🏻🤟
@@grandsubject8138 I've had mine for about 10 years now and it's probably the sturdiest bike I've ever had, new bikes don't even compare and I've never owned a car I have been riding it 8 miles to get to work for around 7 years.
The rear wheels have cotter-pins holding them on , so they are hard if to impassable to get out unless you have special tooling to get the pins out, so on top of that once the pins are tampered with the rear wheels will actually become loose feeling when rode again , the pins swell in there over time and the rear wheels then feel solid when riding, it was just a common thing the way Schwinn design of building the rear ends , a lot of times the bikes are just so old that the spokes are loose and the old schwinn bikes don’t ride so well just due to time but, a spoke wrench 🔧 and some tightening can at least get the bike ok to ride again, if you may be trying to do a lowrider build with it , it will be a headake trying to do it with the 3speed rearend .. the single speed schwinn rearends will work so much easier, it’s a much better design then the 3speed cotter-pin for just for say building a custom 20” with it. If you just want to get it out clean 🧽 it up and ride it I’d say to buy a spike wrench. If you have to replace the rim on the back. Don’t mess with the pins it will make the loose feeling in the back like the will wobbling around , flip the bike on its side and take the tire off and disassemble the spokes , bike shops won’t really want to mess with it because it’s so heavy and can’t get in the bike working stand
Thanks and thanks for the question , if you think of any other questions don’t hesitate to ask , I of course don’t know it all but I got lots of good experience building up many different kinds of affordable bikes 🚲
@@grandsubject8138 thanks for the reply! We got it all fixed up without removing the wheel. 2 new tires, 3 tubes, 2 spokes. Everythings all lubed up and riding well!
I think it will make a sweet looking bike and if I don’t like the look of it once it’s slammed out in the front I actually do have a 60s Schwinn beach cruiser bike I’ll swap parts onto it, but we’ll see parts won’t be here for about a week or little so. I was talking to my friend the other day about building one again. lol. It’s happening !! Thanks appreciate that
First of all beautiful cars beautiful collection excellent video my wife and I build these along with some of my friends we've got quite a few ourselves we do all of our own work and I just want to say the interior in those are beautiful and I was just wondering what is the name of the material and where did you get it to make those I've been going to places like Michaels and Joanne fabrics and doing different Interiors but I can't find anything with a pattern that small
Very very nice collection boss. I’m trying to find that interior like your cars. If you can point me in the right direction I appreciate it. You have a very fine collection. Peace and blessings.
Thanks for sharing, I really like to read and hear bike story’s , hay that’s wonderful to hear, very cool moms bike was an oldie and like you said it might of been a tank of a bicycle but the memories from it are priceless, me my sister my cousins grew up going to my grandparents home and got to ride my grandmothers bike a 3wheeler schwinn town and country, it was also a step through, we would 2wheel it a lot it had the single speed so you could still ride it with one back wheel off the ground unlike the 3speeds of them years I think it was like an 74 but. We were kids and we eventually broke the frame doing that with the bike. Top tube broke at the seat post, they had someone weld it back up and then it was fine after that ,we still tried to do the 2wheel motion thing for years after and it was welded right and was solid! Childhood memory’s are wonderful ❤ I don’t miss the bike so much it was heavy with a small crank sprocket but yes magnificent memory’s. Rob again thanks for sharing have yourself a nice weekend to come!! 🤙
Cool . Hope you have good luck with the Brooks saddle. My mother had a new Single speed with rod breaks in early 1940s when she left school, it was fitted with a Brooks saddle with the springs like yours. As a child in early 70s her bike was well retired in a shed , we as kids draged it out to try , it was a step threw so just about doable as a 9 year old. I was absolutely astonished just how good it was. Heavy with steel rod breaks and wheels ,but the saddle was well broken in and was the best saddle ever , mind you as kids anything was ok . I still to this day remember that old heavy bike but couldn't quite grasp how well it went along ,seat 5 stars , speed 5 stars . Even now with my 2×11 speed carbon race bike with carbon wheels and post , i still remember that old heavy Single speed steel rod breaks and steel wheels with super comfy saddle. G Luck .
It’s just not an old schwinn world you know…..it’s also an old Kent world..an old free spirit world.. pueguot world and on and on! I have an old Kent which I will make a basket case bike to carry groceries. Fix those oldies up and get them parts!
I learned a bit more about super sport just from watching a video from John’s vintage bikes channel. They definitely taught me a few things But I just want to ride the bike to feel the difference between one or another in my own style , hybirding the bikes to sit upright works out for me. I know it looks different putting the handlebars on the bikes but it really feels comfortable riding in this position I like the steering right up on me just like the bikes from the 1890s wish I knew someone that owned one and would let me ride it so I could feel what’s that’s like 🚲
Hey I have one of those. Same story as you, I picked it up barely used from some fella. Paid 75 bucks in 2015 or so. Had the original tires on it and everything. Mine is the same color too.
Oh cool. That’s awesome I haven’t seen another one I picked it up from a picker guy that’s a friend of mine he just had it sitting in a shed and another friend of mine told me about it and said I should go take a look at it!! He knew I was into the vintage road bikes but yeah good find. I’ve only had mine a couple years now and wanted to do something with it kinda extra so I would ride it often it’s probably been asleep for so so long!! Hay cool glad to know there other ones out there!! Enjoy !!
lol the world sport was kinda tall frame so I thought it might go work but almost just wasn’t enough. I knew it needed to be a 27” bike , wish the bike industry would bring back 27 “ bikes but with all the new fancy parts.
Thanks, I know I’m a bit wacky for liking and keeping them bars on, love to entertain and have some fun doing it !! Maybe some day someone will pick me up to be in a movie cycling related’ or just get to act a part in a movie 🎥 that has some fantastic characters in the story
Thanks for asking, give me a bit of some time to get back to you and I’ll let you know what kind of pricing it takes to build, it just depends on how and in what way you are trying to build it, I’ll get with my friend ask him if he has any of his collection he might part with for me it’s just ask yourself how much passion you might have for a hobby start with tools first work your way through it yourself the hobby is hours upon hours of your time in my opinion having something you built is more rewarding then buying someone else’s creation trade the phone for tools in a tool box no offense it’s just the time investment is not worth the sell of something so detailed That’s why a detailed real lowrider that’s well token care of ,should not sell for under 200 k. Again in my experience and opinion preserving. How many times you gonna see Joe Ray pulling out any of his finished lowriders out. Big levels to it. Tools first then toolbox. Dry air tight storage 200k I was 13 and living in Indiana “Indiana”. There’s very few that live here and understand the concept..value .. passion. To not just trade buy another trade trade. Hold on to something cherish it the rest of your life make sacrifices to keep that what they say pride and joy around don’t fall in the realm as others do with just creating more landfill but sorry for lecturing just don’t like seeing people using our culture for some kind of show off thing witch it is but want more men nowadays turning wrenches to be more of an example to the youth that they can do it on there own too Teach there self there’s no lazy way to being a tru Lowrider and your name pretty much in stone once you become a real worker of Lowriding passion , I mean there is no show here for Lowriders really. Hamilton Ohio dose an event once a year other then that big travel Kentucky and Chicago that’s it. There’s no cruising down any Blvd here non there classic car meets and some cruises with muscle cars no lowriders in this area but me and not even a handful , most are just in struggle just keeping the month rent. For most I suppose anywhere in general by here much so even more it’s great they come up with the rc lowriders for people from much of nothing , tv RU-vid social media really has a bigger expatiation than what’s just start out really real some of us are more fortunate even though we really don’t have much money to show out are dreams in a week
Pls excuse me , it’s really nice to meet you and many others loving the passion of Lowriding in many forms and ways of car building !! You are my brother let’s keep this passion going forever’
So 200 k depending if that’s how much you are into the real cars it is not that way for many ,just a clean cruiser can be all the same pride in the cars as of who has the money to bypass the way into being a dedicated Lowrider , sometimes it’s just too much for many and they fall out because it seemed so glamorous when starting to be a worker, many will ask us how we can stand to wipe down a car so much lol. I don’t share my personal cars much really because I’m teaching myself how to do things by studying ones who have and know, the rc world of Lowriding has just took off actually pretty recently it’s not been here that long the car culture been so way much longer but all good vibes don’t let aunts uncles moms dads brothers or sisters try to shut out your dreams with reality believe you can work hard at it with your own hands and you will have what you desire and deserve in the first place
Badass! Hey brother, I know red cat makes them, but what about those upgrade’s? Do you do them? Buy the parts separately? Or jevries does it all? Thank you 🙏🏼 Cheers
Ok so the some parts are custom hand made that you can’t buy and a lot of other parts are just sourced from online from small businesses that create sticker’s-bumpers- lights-wheels-etc. the motors can be upgraded to bigger motors more volts computer programs to up the volts it’s expensive hobby to get the cars to look super realistic, extended rear trailing arms to hop higher lol. This is my friend’s collection this is what he is into and he’s probably got one of the best collections in the world. I’m into it also but the real thing I’m a lowrider at heart I spread the lowrider bug off on to others just something I’ve always been into and definitely am an Original Lowrider, I’ve watch people come and go I’m here for life it’s a lifestyle for me I’m 44. Been into Lowriders bikes and cars ect from about 13 years old as I can remember never got into other cars or truck styles but Mabey custom rods rat rods bombs etc. mini trucks are ok but don’t care to own one, so but yeah, with the Redcat’s RC’s. I love them I’m personally waiting to buy one but a model they don’t have out yet a Bomb like a 48 or an 54 Chevy , thanks for asking !! appreciate your interest into the culture !! Buy one you will love it it’s alot cheaper then buying building and storing and taking care of the real thing!! lol you are here now. No turning back. Welcome to the world Of Lowriding Bikes Cars Motorcycles And models ! Yess yes I love to here that Welcome 🙏
Well shooting star you are. I just looked at your channel you live in the culture. No need for a welcome. But yes thanks for the question about The RC’s !!! Have a great week !!
Mic audio is good and right level. However background music is overpowering your commentary. Personally i prefer just natural street sounds with any of your commentary, but that's just me . Nice run out . Cool bike pic is extra bonus.
Thank you for the your input,❤️I really am trying to figure out a lot with editing and much of how the professional RU-vidr bicycling people that make there videos so crispy and detailed interesting, I suppose a computer with big data and memory is the biggest plus, I’m always open to learning more lol. 🤙 I think about 8 min videos seem to work out the best for editing also for the viewers I suppose so they don’t gets bored with the video ❤️Again thanks have a great week to come!!
Thanks that's a great question < ?? so the RC Cars you see are made by Jevries Scale Lowriders, the ones you see in my video are very detailed customs that take many hours and quite a bit of extras to make them look so realistic then right out the box bought.
It’s just kinda for fun pictures some clips for video editing, well there’s-a rear wheel to match but it’s only fixed ‘ I don’t think there’s even a freewheel version of this mag style , sorry don’t mean to be confusing Id just say it’s just for fun , no difference, I suppose much. You can hear the sound of the blades moving past the forks makes a unique sound like a helicopter 🚁 the bike rides about same I run the same tires same brand. There new, I pretty much ride every now and again but with the stock wheels on it while home here in Indiana. It’s hilly pretty much any direction you want to go, when I’m in Michigan it’s flat along the lake side it’s just a easygoing bike to ride along the long flat stretch un like here so much I’m guilty I haven’t rode it but 3 times recently lol 😆 fun quick quiet bike to ride it is!! 🤷♂️❤️❤️❤️🚲🚲❤️🚲🚲🚲👍👍🙂🚁🚁🚁🚁
@@grandsubject8138 that is so cool. I just happen to be looking for a fixed mag wheel for my vintage bike I am using. I am a heavy guy, I am training for my ultra marathon for 2024. Would you every sell the fixed rear wheel and if so, how much?
@@365tonkatruckfit2 oh my bad 😆 lol. Sorry I meant I only bought just the front rim I didn’t buy the back I seen that the design on the rear rim fixed version is a bad design that comes loose after awhile due to the design of bolting the gear right to the mag, it’s newer design works but is poor because tend to come loose just the rear
😂 Mr. Lemond himself did a speech for Major Taylor’in Indianapolis Indiana, but no so truthfully I love all cultures of bicycles 🚲, radical Lowriders/hybrids/e-bikes-tall bikes everything bicycle related, I personally don’t have them thingy’s horses where across there head to keep there eyes looking forward so they don’t get spooked 😱 😂🙃lol this is just a steel race bike with special one off made Columbus tubes ,lugged frame was built in Italy 🇮🇹 shipped to America 🇺🇸 it’s not a track bike ❤🚲 I just wanted to hip hop it out , I do own 2 different steel bikes with no brakes 🔥🥰🚲❤️🚲❤️🚲👋😆
