Picked up an old beat down 1983 Schwinn Voyageur SP for $20 at a flea market a few years ago. Me and my dad restored it from the ground up. I turned this bike into my commuter bike. Came factory with a triple crank and front and rear racks. The drivetrain is a 50 46 30 chainrings and a 14 to 28 freewheel. Have commuted 3 times last year on this bike. This week I ordered some Nashbar waterproof panniers for my commutes to work and back. Each way is 16.5 miles. On the way home there is about 5 miles of gravel. Here's a couple of pics of the bike. For some other pics and words check out my dad's blog

\nThe bike has 27 x 1 1/4" Kenda slicks and It handles gravel very well.
