Finally riding a big boys bike
I had a similar problem with a Schwinn Typhoon. With help from members here, the consensus is that it is a 1965 or 1966…..but the serial number on rear drop out dates it to 1953!Restoring an old Schwinn and the serial says it a 1950's Starlet,
but the frame and chain guard do not match the 50s Starlet

Any ideas as to what is going on with the serials saying it a 1950's Schwinn Starlet,
but the frame and chain guard do not match the 50's Starlet.
It matches the 1930's Cadillac Chicago Bicycle Supply Co. and it goes with the story
behind the bike being purchased in the 30's and restored in the 80's.

that’s a beautiful bicycle you have there, and I personally think it’s very cool if you know a little history of ownership.
