I see many repro parts that appear to be from Schwinn’s 90’s Black Phantom
reproduction.
i‘ve often wondered how many fake Black Phantoms are out there.
You could buy all the repro parts.
I built one myself from an original era frame. I still have it. I bought four of every part from my local Schwinn dealer.

Just curious, which parts appear to be repro to you?

That is a 100 percent original FrankinSchwenn.

At the risk of opening Pandora’s box and maybe hurting the eBay sellers feelings——
I‘ll start with the tank, grips, chain guard and maybe the pedals.
anyone else want to jump in?

I'll jump in, none of those items mentioned are repro other than possibly the grips and the pedal blocks

bit of a stretch to call it a Phantom. can't even call it a B-6

I can't help it, this one got me!

That's a macro shot I haven't seen yet.
As a wheel builder, I have a new goal! Lol

Are you the ebay poster? It is posted from your location. The fenders are not original

Truss rods are repop

That’s a lot of money for a parts bike with what might be a decent wheelset (sight unseen)
