75 Schwinn Continental: New Cables, Brake Pads, Etc...

...I just dropped the Connie off at Bicycles, Etc. in Lisle, IL to get all new brake & deraillure cables, brake pads, handlebar tape, steering bearings, and a tube cap on the handle bars.

The cables and handle bar tape are all in blue from Velo Orange, and the shop is supplying the bearings, pads, and tube cap.

I should be picking her up next Saturday. Shop cost is $167 and change, Velo Orange parts were about $60, but I got two sets of everything, so I'll have spares at home.

Ride on,

Dan
