I live for the CABE
Here's a couple photos of my 1988 Schwinn High Sierras, the first one I purchased is the taller frame, which became my Road Bicycle with front & rear Blackburn Luggage Racks, I have panniers for both racks with complete camping set-up. Also the original 1988 Schwinn ATB owners manual.
The second bike was a friend of mines, after riding my bike he went and purchased a 1988 High Sierra that was a smaller frame. He offered it to me a couple years later, as he was moving and needed some cash. This bicycle became my Trail Rider.
Both bicycles have vintage Rock-Ring and Gorilla stem clamp accessories.
Had to take them out for a ride and photos today, as we had decent weather before the snow flies! Enjoy !
