That frame was brazed when Schwinn built it. Those welds do not look like factory brazing to me.

Sure looks like a bubble gum patch up to me. Is it breaking loose again?

Yup, and given the condition of the paint overall, if ya looks to the mounting area of kickstand, there's not a single scratch.. So, it was patched and painted very recently. least they could have done would have been to grind it down a bit.

Hey, that's Marty. He's a good guy--very reasonable in price and character. I've been a repeat customer a handful of times.

I'd have to reckon he wipes his butt. But he definitely doesn't shave his beard.
