Schwinn is looking good! I wish we had a velodrome on near us. ^

Snow day today. All about process. Wanted to try some yellow/amber shellac. The tape started off yellow, became honey brown. Still too yellow for my taste. I went darker and added cordivan leather dye. Now it's a dark red/brown. Almost a burgundy. Looks better in person. That's a day long process to make something that's gonna get it's arse covered in dirt in the first ride.






Also mounted road/gravel width cranks into wide mtb width bottom bracket. Not easy task. Much redneckifying later, it actually works!






Now to wait for the snow to melt!
