    Info on the schwinn Deluxe Typhoon

    The biggest difference in a Typhoon VS a Deluxe Typhoon was the DeLuxe lettering on the chain guard, standard front rack, and longer front fender. Up until 66 they had painted to match fenders and just had the pin stripes the entire length of the fender. It didn't have a white tip on the end...

    1957 Jaguar Mark II

    I don't care for the low rise that came on the Jaguar bars. I much prefer the higher rise of the ones on the late 60s Typhoons/Panthers etc.

    1967 DeLuxe Typhoon

    That's where two speed automatic hubs really shine. Allows you to have multi speeds without all the cable clutter.

    Maybe @Schwinndemonium has one. ??

    Sports Tourer

    Apparently the builders stamped their signature in the bottom of the bottom bracket when they left the factory. This is a pie with a slice missing or a cheese wheel or a pac man. Kinda cool!

    Sports Tourer

    I'm ashamed to say I only got this out maybe once last year. Those that know what this bike and frame are, know. 1974 Sports Tourer with factory original parts.

    That could be the Bicycle Museum in New Bremen Ohio that already has a lot of historical Schwinn items and documents.

    1961 Bendix Two Speed Automatic Disassembly Question

    What you have in your hands in the last photo does not come apart any further. Great job getting the dust cap off, it can be a PITA.

    1961 Jaguar and a bit of a story to go with it.

    Also yeah I know the seat is high and looks goofy....but I'm 6' and sometimes I ride this and don't feel like putting the seat down just for a photo. I have a long seat post in it from a sting ray.

    Waterford Cycles closing their doors

    As a Schwinn enthusiast I am saddened by the news of the ending of an era. As someone who has seen a Waterford bike and have met Richard Schwinn; no big loss.

    2023 Monroe Classic Bicycle Show and Swap Meet Sunday, May 7

    I thought about that sitting there today....I'm betting if it were more it wouldn't bring as many vendors bc they could think they could skip one for the other etc. Also there is a similar swap in Royal Oak MI in September.

    Sure was. I took the pic for Schwinndemonium bc I know he likes Zepplins and he couldn't make the show. I don't know anything else about it.

    Bikes I can deliver to Monroe.

    I saw that Jaguar there and I was impressed that it was the only Mark 4 there with all the correct components.

    2023 Monroe Classic Bicycle Show and Swap Meet Sunday, May 7

    2nd annual swap at Monroe and it was just as great as last year. I really like these grounds for a swap show. IMO good turnout. There were some sprinkles throughout the early morning but those gave way, the grounds dried up, the sun came out and it ended up being a great day. I submitted...

    I found a better chromed crash rail at the Monroe swap meet today. The OG (one on the bottom) didn't look as great as I swapped it out.

    2023 Monroe Classic Bicycle Show and Swap Meet Sunday, May 7

    The best thing they did when they were in AA was eliminate the mini bikes riding around and generally being a nuisance. Hopefully re adding them won't be an issue. As far as the flea market goes; it's beginning to sound like a large garage sale with a bike shoe swap attached. Guess we'll see...

    1961 Jaguar and a bit of a story to go with it.

    At some point someone ran it through a huge glob of tar that I only found once I inverted the bike for storage last year. It isn't really visible when it's being ridden or stood on the kickstand. Today is a snowy cold day, perfect for some detailing. It was on the underside of both fenders...

    Schwinn 1960 Black Jaguar $900

    Full disclaimer- totally joking. @Schwinndemonium would understand

    What if Schwinn built this....

    As have I and I agree.

    Schwinn 1960 Black Jaguar $900

    That would look better with a banana seat and ape hangers bars.

    Tim, you have excellent taste in bikes and a great eye for the details that matter. It would be an honor to meet you some day.

    Jaguar and Corvette

    I've got the road lighter on my 1961 Jaguar. Needs a lens although it's hard to tell. This thread makes me miss mine being outside. It's in my basement so it's not far away but it being out in the sun is where it belongs. Thanks for the pics of your bikes, Tim.

    Last Sunday was my birthday and I thought I'd get it out for some short riding. It was 70 in MI in late October which is unusual. Enjoy the photos.

    Take all the parts off, fenders, handlebars, seat post etc......hang the head badge and chain guard on the wall and scrap the frame.

    1971 Schwinn Sports Tourer to Town Bike Project!

    Keep in mind if you want to make it a 10 speed again the front derailleur on a ST is a bigger diameter where it clamps on the seat tube than any other electro forged bike.

    Is the front fork bent or is that an optical illusion?

    Dedicated camping bike

    I have been kicking around the idea for a dedicated camping/campground bike for a while. I've taken my 74 Sprint in years past for long rides outside of camp but it isn't that practical for the actual campgrounds. (Getting firewood, ice, using the bathroom building, etc). This year I took...

    Been crushing on my 58 Spitfire lately that I got in 2012 as a Christmas present since I haven't been riding my Dad's Typhoon as much. When I got it I replaced the bent bars, added repop chubby grips, a new headbadge, a softer but still somewhat accurate saddle, correct pedals, added the rear...

    Help with Bendix Two Speed Yellow band hub

    It could be too tight, a broken bearing, a pitted bearing, a pitted hub, needs greased/overhauled (cleaned out and greased) has too much old grease, dirt got in, etc. The list goes on. They aren't that bad to work on; I find them fun. Tedious and make a mess to clean out but satisfying to say...

    A small update on this thread, but unfortunately I forgot to snap some photos... I don't ride this much but it does get out from time to time. I was on a 10 miler and it developed a clunk from the bottom bracket. I immediately thought the adjustment cone was out of spec but the crank didn't...

    What to do with old tires?

    All of my bikes are riders. I average 12-15 MPH on my rides and that's including single speed middleweights. I have no use for old wore out tires.
