Bike Sunday for February 7, 2010
Putting on the Brakes
The vintage Schwinn is an elegant old steel roadie. Not too aggressive, but capable and fast. She needs new brakes, though, and winter is a good time to do work on the bike. Question is, should the old center-pulls be reconditioned and returned to the bike, or would side-pulls be better?

We love our bikes and everything that goes with them, right? And we never tire of looking at them. At least I don’t, and if I’m to judge from what others tell me, I’m not alone. So each Sunday I’ll publish a bike related picture. Most of the time the picture will be a photo, but I’ll also include drawings, paintings, sculptures, and any other representation of a bike or bike stuff. If you have one you’d like to contribute to the gallery, just email your picture(s) to me.
