It does help!! I appreciate your input.

It is the ID.

Here are the pics of the ID

I did use a digital vernier to measure the steerer tube. I’ll go out later and measure it again. Take pics also. I don’t have a fork yet.

Does anyone make new old style rear dropout screws?

Such a cool bike. But the transport would be a killer

Bummer! Was looking forward to this.

When I finally get mine to my house I will take detailed pictures. It’s taking forever because i have a friend who is trying to do me a favor and save me money on shipping. He wants to personally fly it down here. Unfortunately our schedules never line up for when he comes into town.

If you would ship

Beautiful bike

That isn’t my white Racer. It was one I was looking at buying. Not sure if it sold.

Not picking. Just pointing out how names start to become normal for certain things they are not. I call them all dropouts. Why? Because when you call them rear forks, many people get confused. Remember, it’s a hobby!

I don’t want to get too far off track here, but........ I agree with GTs58 is pointing out. Yet I think “dropout” has become the standard name. Much like many people call a wheel, a rim.

They also had rear facing without tensioners/adjusters. Which I believe the Superiors had.

I also believe the rear dropouts on the Superior are different.

If it had fenders, which I doubt. They would’ve been mounted to the axle. They bike definitely looks like the racer.

All the parts match up to the Racer. But the hubs are Dural instead of ND and the chainring is that if the Superior. I’m guessing they put that chainring on to show it roots being Schwinn since the headbadge is Liberty.

I’m trying to find out more info and such at the moment

What is everyone’s thoughts on this? Appears to be a 1938 Racer, but Liberty badged.

Nice bike

I would say with those adjustable drop outs it’s prewar.

A lot of good stuff so far

@rennfaron Those are interesting links. It’s definitely not a Paramount.

Does anyone have pictures of 1938/1939 Schwinn Racers like that in the picture? Or Schwinn Racers under with different company headbadges.

Looking for a 1950s Columbia lightweight. Project or rider. Doesn’t care about the particular model. Pics for example

@rennfaron I had this 42 Columbia. War period bikes seem to much plentiful compared to the 50s.

What you see is what you get. It’s a 1913/1914 21” Special Racer. Someone many years ago stripped the paint and did a horrible repaint. Pictures tell the story. No dings and appears straight. Orlando Florida $350 + shipping

That is beautiful!
