Look Ma, No Hands!
Greetings,
I recently purchased a 1956 Schwinn Racer, and the serial number doesn't seem to fit the databases.
W9 is higher than the serial numbers go, and I'm pretty sure that's a 9
Any ideas on what's going on?
I'm also wondering if the early Racers had bolt on kickstands. Mine does, and I can't find an definitive evidence of damage from a welded one breaking off. Plus the stay for the fender mount is definitely factory looking. But the catalogs seem to show welded on kickstands?
Thanks,
-Craig
