    Mine was one of these Schwinn SS cruisers with the tyres, bars, stem saddle and pedals swapped out with stuff for £20 ebay/found in parts bin, and way cheaper 🙂

    Sure some googling will find them in UK 🙂

    Where you based wrecker?

    I got a Schwinn SS, trouble is its mint, bought it home from the states 10 years ago & ridden it about twice, so not sure its fair on it, I also have some DMR wingbars that would make it directly into a clunker.

    Its the same as this but just black tyres.

    They look awesome. I want.

    Modern take on the clunker theme:

    I started riding it for a laugh, but it gets taken out more than my 456 now.

    dunno, I will PM you tomorrow, am based in Essex though & dont fancy posting it.

    I can be tempted with swappage for shiny MTB bits better than cash!

    Not seen any video of people riding them uphill. Do the cool kids dump them at the bottom and buy another at the top?

    Well nearly four months have passed and they’re due in today and surprise surprise quite a few folk liked the idea and wanted one, notably BMX types that view mountain and road bikes as the province of old men.

    So, anyone here waiting for one they’ll be in Transition stores early next week and I look forward to seeing vids of Klunkermen beating up tubby Audidrivng full sussers at trail parks.. 😉

    And the list of trail users who get pi$$ed off with braking bumps at every corner will grow accordingly..
