Bracket
1975 Schwinn Heavy-Duti.
The pivot point on the old bike seat won't tighten down enough to keep from twisting back & forth on the top of the seat post. The bike shop said the seat isn't the right size for the post. To fix the problem I made an aluminum bracket and attached it to the frame.
A 1/4 20 threaded rod runs through the bracket and through a hole in the bottom of the seat frame. After some adjusting I'll add 2 more nuts above the bracket and below the seat frame.
The seat doesn't move any more.
26" Schwinn Heavy-Duti in Kool Lemon. My dad bought this bike back in 1975.
HK serial number = Assembled in August 1974
Made in Chicago, Illinois.
