1955 Schwinn Straight Bar
The frame was dented and had alot of surface rust under the original paint. I had it triple chromed, added some oldschool bmx flavor to it.

Re: 1955 Schwinn Straight Bar
How did you do your custom brake mount? Is that just a piece of angle iron? Im working on a 24" Schwinn and I dont have a brake bracket, just a fender bracket!
