A very interesting restoration to come through the shop was a red 1974 Schwinn Sports Tourer.  The Sports Tourer had some very nice French components.  The Schwinn Sports Tourer turned out absolutely beautiful.  Click here for the Schwinn Sports Tourer restoration or the photo below.

What may be the nicest Schwinn Super Sport in existence was restored in the shop.  It is an amazing sunset orange and John's choice of aged leather saddle, saddle tool bag and leather grip tape is amazing.  Click here to see the Schwinn Super Sport restoration or the photo below.

Brad's 1982 Trek turned out to be a fantastically fast and nimble bicycle.  The paint looks factory fresh and the bright work just pops.  Click here to see the Trek Restoration or the photo below.

A recent restoration was a 1985 Centurion Comp TA.  First words out of my mouth to describe the Centurion is "Damn its FAST!!".  The Centurion has a beautiful understated look with the silver and bronze colors.  Click here for the Centurion Comp TA restoration or the photo below.
