3 make that... ALL SOLD EXCEPT FOR a good low $$ trainer

Before you dig in: size-wise, all the bikes are on the large size, the Schwinns' step over height is approximately the same as the Fuji, and the Fuji frame size is listed at 23 inches, though it slopes from front to back. If it helps, I am 6' 1" with a 33 inch inseam and these are a good fit.

SOLDSOLDSOLD1973 vintage made (and now remade) in Chicago Schwinn World Tour single speed conversion. I repacked and replaced the bearings in the head set, bottom bracket and both hubs. Chain, freewheel, and tires/tubes are new. There's a nice worn tan Brooks B-15 saddle. Chopped and flopped bars, good quality Shimano front brake with new pads. I put on a more upright stem, but will include the original. Both wheels are newer alloy with ss spokes. Crank is a 52 tooth SunTour, Mks quill pedals. Rear end is geared low for beer retrieval with a new ACS 22 tooth freewheel. Finish was stripped, and it's in flat black primer. Would be a good candidate for a fixie experiment as well. $90, which is what I have into it for the new parts (not my labor, which is currently worth about $0.65/hour).

SOLD SOLD SOLD 1973 vintage Schwinn, lipstick red "Speedster" model. Remade with 27" wheels from the above World Tour, single speed conversion with new Astabula/Wald chain ring and ACS freewheel on an alloy wheel. Good city tires with new tubes. Otherwise, all original except for org chrome rear fender which doesn't fit anymore. I stuck on a rear luggage rack, and a milk crate fits great, so maybe you don't need a rear fender?. Wheel bearings repacked, new front brake too. Original finish is good considering 36 Chicago winters. Size is the same stand over as the other two bikes listed here. Will toss in a bare bone frame and bars (in metal flake Schwinn green!) from a Schwinn "Breeze" if you want that as well. $65.

SOLDSOLDSOLD2005 Fuji Absolute "Silhouette" upright road bike. Aluminum frame, 3x9 Shimano 27 speed, road triple gearing. Quality Shimano/Tektro components, radial spoked wheels, flat handlebar. Unlike me, this bike is quick and lightweight. Specs are at Fuji.com. It has the original clipless pedals, and I will include a pair of lightly used Lake SPD shoes, as well as a set of spd cleats. The shoes are euro 46, or around 10.5/11 US. Speedometer/odometer included too. This would also make a great SS or fixie conversion. $175 and worth it, new it's around $600.

Aireon Mag 33 indoor trainer, exc cond. $45 or BO.

Not looking for other bikes, parts etc to trade.

I am in the west burbs, naperville/aurora area, but get into the city once a week or so, possible delivery.
