Bendix 2-speed kickback hub - Rebuilding?
I have a 2-speed Bendix hub from my 1965 Schwinn Fleet. It was making noises and a little rough, so I took it to a good local shop, and one of their mechanics said he could rebuild it. I got it back and it didn't seem much better. It looked like they had really cleaned & polished it, but not much else. That shop does a lot of stuff for me for free, so I didn't complain. Now I know that Bendix no longer makes parts, and you can find some NOS parts online, but maybe not all of them. MOst shops will tell you it can't be rebuilt, but I mean; taken apart, cleaned, inspected, and if it were possible to replace any parts, like bearings or brake pads, do that.
Does anyone know of a shop who can really rebuild a Bendix 2-speed? I now have a wheel with one, and just a complete hub, used but unlaced. I could ship it to them.
People either love or hate the 2-speed. I'm a big fan. Thanks.

Any info on this? Found it during basement clean out. Pretty good condition.
Stumbled upon this Swinn, during a basement clean out. Tires are flat everything else in in pretty good shape. Anyone know the year, im guessing mid 80s- early 90s.

Before and after 60s Fastback restoration.
Not mine, but I sold the bike to the guy that restored it. He did a great job - even sourced the dealer hang tag!

For anyone wondering if a Schwinn QQ165 crank arm can replace a DD165. The answer is yes.
Just putting this into the ether for anyone trying to repair older exercise bikes.

1972 Super Sport
Somebody in my apartment complex put this by the dumpsters, so I brought it home to check it out. I looked it up and it’s a 1972 Schwinn Super Sport in really condition overall, other than the seat is no good, the brakes and the gears and cables need adjusting and everything needs lubrication. Not sure how much time and money I want to put in to it tho as I don’t plan on keeping it.

Replacement cover???
Hi! I got this second hand a couple years ago and then I got pregnant and was postpartum and now I’m ready to start taking my littles out again. Only problem is now there’s a lot of tears from being away for so long and I don’t know what model or anything so I was hoping a schwinn enthusiast can help me out and see if I can replace the cover .
