1964 Schwinn Traveler - Getting Ready for Spring

 

Spring is finally close at hand. The weather has been steadily warming, though there is still some residual winter salt on the roads. I did some final tinkering this evening with the 1964 Schwinn Traveler. I decided to go with a Brooks B66 Honey colored saddle and a Banjo Brothers barrel bag. I got to test it out a little on the local side road, and it seems like it is ready for its first "real" ride. Hopefully we'll get this road salt washed away and back on the road in the next week or so.

Below is a closer look at the Soma Silver Bullet rear tail light, which is an LED light in a vintage-style package. I think the torpedo/rocket styling goes well with a 1950s-60s era bike. It also goes great with the stainless Schwinn fenders.
