This is a special frame with mounting tabs under the top tube which are meant for attaching the famous Slimline Tank. These were only made for a very few years and are now one of the most collectible Schwinns anywhere! I am selling a Slimline Tank in one of my other auctions now, so make sure you check them all out!
These Schwinn cantilever frames do have great geometry and ride quality. Sadly it is time for me to part with this fine machine and send it to a new home where hopefully it will be ridden and loved as much as I have. I will be listing the Bendix coaster brake wheels and other parts soon. I have a large lot of Schwinn Phantom parts I will be listing too. Add me to your list of favorite sellers!
Please note I may pull out the crankset and pack it inside the box with the frame in order to keep shipping costs low. The crank bearings are fully cleaned and are in excellent, low mile condition but will need grease and assembly before riding. Like the 1957 Chevy, these old Schwinns were truly built to last. Many people note that these pre 1970 frames have a better build quality and nicer electo-welding, the same process Schwinn used for 40 years. Shipping to the 48 states will be $34.99, packed very carefully. Thanks for looking, and see my other auctions for more vintage bike parts, tools, wood inlays, and other oddities! I have been laid off my job of 40 years so I need to sell off a large collection, please bid or at least watch the auction which would really help me out! It is killing me to sell all these parts, but help me move them to a good home.
