That is a killer deal for a great frame. I ordered set of decals for my daughter’s 2001 frame from Velocals, just be sure to order the correct letter color and shadow colors for the down tube decals. http://www.velocals.com/schwinn-pro-homegrown-sku-481/
I still have one of these frames left, but unfortunately it’s cracked at the head tube. I had 2 others that cracked at the same place that I gave away to other Schwinn guys. This is my favorite bike artwork.
I have a few favorite Schwinns. #1- My Underground is my favorite hard tail mountain bike. #2- My Phantoms are my second favorite neighborhood cruiser bikes. #3- My 87 Paramount.
I would love to have this bike but the time isn’t right. I think that Zoltan guy might want it. He usually is all over everything Homegrown.
Here’s one on the Homegrown FB page. The guy’s name is Tom Martin.
Hey guys- I’ve got a nice one I need to part with. It’s a 17″ homegrown fs frame, I had it refinished in gloss black and a dark blue. The frame was sent to John Castellano himself to have the pivot machined, and brand new pivot tube and bushings installed. Hoping it can go to someone in the group before eBay. I’m not sure what to do on price? I’ve got a good amount into it, but it’s 100% done and ready to build.
It’s blue with a black rear end. It looks really good.
Gotta be a Sweet Spot? This Rocket 88 is pretty sweet, but I am not sure what size it is. It has V brakes on it but it could have the 22mm rear disc option, not sure. https://wausau.craigslist.org/bik/5950605714.html
I usually use a blow dryer to heat them and peel them off, followed by goof off to remove the glue residue, then rubbing alcohol. Polishing up the paint is a good idea before applying the new decals. I usually do any paint touch up before applying the decals. Good luck
The rear disc triangle is a plus.Rich Adams has some decals for that listed on a popular auction site right now.I bought 2 sets of them and they are exact. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Schwinn-Homegrown-Hardtail-Decals-/172313129695?hash=item281ea9b2df:g:6e0AAOSwrklVFHUN
