Thanks for the tip. As a fellow "long legger", over 6', with a blossoming interest in vintage and classic bikes, I'm interested in knowing which, makes / models will have the best potential for riding comfort for me.
Accordingly I have noted, from reading about it here on the forum, that there was something called a "Kingsize" frame that was offered by Schwinn, I believe this was only in their Heavy-Duti and American models, and only for certain model years. I guess these were both middleweights throughout their production, and were both cantilever frame designs. Good to know about, but I'd prefer to find an older style frame

Per your suggestion, I looked on Ebay, but I could only find Roadmaster straight bar frames of these designs:
This type doesn't look like a straight bar to me.

This type looks more like your bike, but my uneducated eyes are having a hard time discerning the important details on your fully built bike. Are the dropouts on the later style rear facing like this?

How does one differentiate the "later" from the "earlier" CW frame, and besides the raked seat tube angle, what advantages does the later style offer over the earlier? Maybe you can point me to a specific Ebay ad?
Do you have any other suggestions of make/model of balloon tire frame that would be more likely to give me the larger frame I desire?
Thanks again!
