Hi,
I have a Schwinn Super Sport with a date code of LH039xxx.This would be November of 1972 if I read charts right.
The hubs are dated 1-73.
Can I correctly call this a '73 model?
Thanks
Pete
The serial number date is the date the number was stamped on the bike's component. Then later on that stamped component was used to build a frame. No doubt your SS was built in 1973.
the Schwinn Approved DELUXE/LUXE is a Normandy Sport with a little bit nicer finish on the shell. the internals are the same as an ordinary Normandy Sport. thought I had an illustration stored on me HD but could no locate it.
one easy way to spot them without looking at the marking on the barrel is that the flanges are relieved, somewhat in the manner of the Luxe Competition and the 700 models.
