Sold 1962 Schwinn Typhoon

[Axlerod]

I am offering up a Single speed July, 1962 Schwinn Typhoon. It has 26” S-7 wheels. The front Hub is Schwinn Approved. The rear has a GERMANY stamp on it. The wheels are in good condition but the tires and tubes are shot. The paint is what I would consider good for a 58 year old bike but please enlarge the pics to get a close up. The fenders have some paint loss and a few dings here and there. The rear has an odd hole drilled in it(see pic). It looks to me like the front fork is bent in slightly. Please PM any questions. SOLD LOCALLY.

Thanks I appreciate that. I don't mess with many middleweights but was thinking somewhere in that range. Same year I was born! V/r Shawn

I’m not a middleweight guy either. It was clean though. Im surprised it didn’t sell here. Next year is the big 60 for you.
