Same old Story...
Ride on Bro, Bra's
> Thanks for most excellent Responses; Also appreciate the thought & experience that build Them! I do like to work on Machines, enjoy knowing how & why it works, and if it doesn't perform to some usuable standard; clean, disassemble inspect, Etc.> to make it better. Having much more Patience than money at this time of life; Karma dictates much of my acheivements. Biking and related support activities will be enjoyable and healthy way to use my time.
I have made two test-rides mostly for balance & brakes, surely I can find a gear to ride off-road [MENTION=144813]LoC[/MENTION]al park-trails until I can finesse my ancient machine up to Cruising speeds.
I have aquired two other bikes/ same drive train I believe; Schwinn Approved -French "SPRINT" [RD's]; as "Chombi1" pointed out It's an analog process so one of the extra RD's will be sacrificed for science/engineering and FUN! Suggestions/ directions/ links or warning in dissambly of the RD-Sprint- type will be concidered :LOL !
