A very old frame. Nothing was with it. Thinking it is teens or twenties. Ignore the Shelby sprocket. It has all the early Schwinn frame characteristics from what I do know about it. 80 mil vert. badge hole distance.

Very nice piece! A Superior Racer!?? The serial numbers on the lightweights with the 3 piece cranks only had 4 digits after the letter during that time. And they were hand stamped verses being machine stamped like the lightweights with the one piece crank. Check out @Miq 's thread.
