Finally riding a big boys bike
Looking for help to see how old it is - I picked up this schwinn tiger from a guy who got it at the estate auction of terry Thompson - he was the guy here in ohio who let out all his wild animals then killed himself - this schwinn was his bicycle and he rode it A lot as the evidence bears out - it needs all new bearings, ect from extreme use they are all shot - and the tires appear to have been replaced a few times , they are a mismatch of Japanese and Chinese replacements ...... I'm still,trying to figure out how far to go with the clean up as It was owned by him , and may have some collector value based on that - it's radiant green BTW
Serial number is J022337 on rear drop out
Bike has painted wheels - white with red stripes -I was under the impression they all had chrome rims - I also can't find any markings stamped in the wheels - and 26x1.75 tires of mixed brands - the rear hub is bendix , front hub isn't marked that I can find - the block pedals bear the letters H and N - the stem bolts are AS stamped but seat post is not - looks like standard schwinn crank set up - missing front rack and light but mounts still there - ect"."......"
Any help with it would be appreciated
