Finally riding a big boys bike
Hello Experts and fellow Schwinn balloon bike lovers with knowldege! Among some of my bike projects is a deluxe springer fork 1948 Schwinn Autocycle, which I'm working on and I have some questions?
1. What plating is correct on the seatpost D clamp...chrome? Cad? Nickle? Initially, I would have thought the D-clamps were cad, but from looking at pics of deluxe 48 Autocycles here on the Cabe, it appears they have shiny (chrome or nickle) D clamps.
2. What rear fender reflector(s) were used? Stimsonite 10? 3 inch Stimsonite like those on the Phantom? Deluxe w/chrome housing?
3. Other than the chrome plating on Phantoms, were the painted Autocycle fenders the same as early phantom fenders?
