LOL. I live in Cruiser Country and just yesterday picked up 10 Cruisers and a new never built Wally World 27.5 wheeled bso. These Schwinns can make a good cruiser with work, I have had a bunch like this have the same damage and every other one I get have the brazeon Brake posts in different places making it very hard or not at to get the brakes working.
