197*-198* Schwinn, rescued from a dumpster
unknown, rescued from a different bike, in a different dumpster
Original Schwinn, I believe
cheap 700cc wheel on a cheap rim, like at a local bike shop
Specialized All-Condition Armadillo Elite tire on silver Sun Rims M13II with a flip-flop fixed/free hub
Random parts scavenged from my old mongoose road bike
Random seat post rescued from yet another bike bound for the dumpster, seat is a BodyGeometry cutaway, don't know the exact name
Original pedals, really crappy old (possibly original) chain
48t front 15t rear (fixed) 16t rear (free)

Well, the name of the bike pretty much describes it. This bike is made from at least 4 seperate bikes, who all died to give their components to this one. I'm happy with it.
