Wore out three sets of tires already!
I recently got my March, 1970 Super Sport back. This will be a Winter project to put it back to its original configuration. I have all of the original parts that were swapped out when it was converted to a tourist, except for the bars/stem/brake levers. The originals were mislaid and it appears unlikely I will be getting them back.
I found and purchased what appears to be the correct AVA stem (seller's pic). It says AVA on top and is not hollow behind the wedge bolt.
What bars are correct for this bike? Are they AVA bars? I remember the originals were very curved at the tops and seemed to slope down. They were rather narrow too, maybe 38-39cm
Are the brake levers Weinmann/Schwinn Approved with quick releases? I have a set from a later Schwinn road bike with gold-colored quick releases. I don't remember the originals having gold quick releases
Many thanks for any help!
