Finally got a Schwinn!

2" taller seat post tube and steering tube is also longer?

I believe that's right, but from the pictures yours doesn't look like a King-Size. The shape of the triangle formed by the head, top tube and cantilever tubes is visibly different on the King-Size bikes.

Nice find!! I know a guy that has two sets of 26" S2s. One set has tires.

Thanks for the lead but I'm going to run a set of polished alloy hoops 26x1.75, ND model D coaster and a ND W front hub with TI spokes!

Okay [emoji108] I kinda updated my first Schwinn! I do adore the OG bars for an American but I need some leverage to unloose the goose neck which is stuck like Chuck!

Did you knock the stem wedge down before removing the bolt?

Bought the bars for $1.00 and the Sears grips at the 1st Annual Oldfarts Swap meet! @Oldfarts36 puts on a show!

Yep I did but no luck in loosing the neck it's locked solid!

Anyway this is the crusty bars before the rust treatment Rustoleum rust remover.
