1970's Ross Gran Tour.
Not sure of the exact year, but probably late 70's. Ross
was an American competitor of Schwinn and now out of business. A surpisingly good ride.
|
1980 Schwinn Continental.
This bike is heavy, but one of the smoothest I've ridden.
It was built in Chicago in May of 1980, two years before Schwinn
closed the plant. Bomb-proof bike.
|
1983 Trek 400. I obtained this as original, but then converted it into a hybrid. |
1985 Cannondale SR300. Weighs about half of the Schwinn Conti shown above, but it doesn't ride as well. |
1994 Trek 850. I prefer road or hybrid bikes, but I ride this mountain bike when I travel the Erie Canal towpath. |

1969 Schwinn Fairlady.
I found this rusting up in storage and rebuilt it for my daughter
last Fall as a Christmas gift. It's a classic Schwinn from their
(now closed) Chicago plant.
