Look Ma, No Hands!
These are probably dull questions but I gotta ask. Whizzer stuff. I have a forties bike and was told when I bought it that it had "the dimpled frame". What exactly is that? Second bit, it seems the springer on my bike is larger. I'm told the spokes and rims should also be beefier. My understanding that Schwinn did not start factory building Whizzers until 1949 (mine is a 1945 I think). So third question, did the owner specify to the store that they wanted a 'Whizzer ready" bike to be fitted by that dealer in order to get the beefier bits?
