1967 DeLuxe Typhoon

-
Very nice bikes, I use to hate bikes with with clutter (brake levers, brake calipers, cables) Two years ago I ended up with a Town and Country and a 1969 Typhoon Deluxe 3 Speed for 75 bucks. I have since fallen in love with these 3 Speed Typhoons so much so that I bought another 3 Speed Typhoon. Wouldn't mind adding a coppertone Typhoon to my collection

1969 Schwinn Typhoon Deluxe 3 Speed-Red
1970 3 Speed Typhoon 3 Speed-Green
That's where two speed automatic hubs really shine. Allows you to have multi speeds without all the cable clutter.

I dont know if I would say multi speeds, more like a couple of speeds (2). If they had come up with a kickback 3 speed hub, that would be a different ball game. Plus kickbacks had their own drawback, like not knowing what gear you are in when u begin to ride it, and accidentally changing gears when you just meant to use the brakes
