Waterford bicycle factory closes So, too, does another chapter in Schwinn history

As always, the Paramount spared no expense; the bicycles were given high-quality lightweight lugged steel frames using double-butted tubes of Reynolds 531 and fitted with quality European components including Campagnolo derailleurs, hubs, and gears. The Paramount series had limited production numbers, making vintage examples quite rare today. Other road bikes were introduced by Schwinn in… Continue reading Waterford bicycle factory closes So, too, does another chapter in Schwinn history

Does anyone know the history of the Schwinn Aluminum Series road bikes?

The rim would accomidate the narrower 23c/23mm tires, which would offer increased performance.

By 1957, the Paramount series, once a premier racing bicycle, had atrophied from schwinn dealers a lack of attention and modernization. Aside from some new frame lug designs, the designs, methods and tooling were the same as had been used in the 1930s.… Continue reading A Short History of Schwinn: 1990s Bankruptcy though 2021

Bicycle: The History David V Herlihy

When it comes to a low-rider-style trike, overall we think the Schwinn Roadster provides a better ride. The SmarTrike Lollipop 3 in 1 Baby Trike is designed for babies starting at 10 months up to kids 3 years, a narrower age range than other convertible trikes. My 1-year-old was able to sit comfortably in the… Continue reading Bicycle: The History David V Herlihy

Bicycle: The History David V Herlihy

Sometimes these work loose, especially during the break-in period (first 500 miles). Symptom of these screws coming loose is sprocket clatter, chain skipping, and eventually you lose all drive tension (your pedals will spin and the chains move around but you won’t go anywhere). Be sure to check that the rear axle drive sprocket and… Continue reading Bicycle: The History David V Herlihy
