Schwinn girl Phantom pedals

[chevbel57]

Hi was was wondering if any one knew what pedals the girl phantom required? I was told AS pedals but not like the boy phantom have.

If no one chimes in by the time I get home tonight I'll take a couple of pics and post them. V/r Shawn

Usually girls pedals are smaller.

The endcaps and blocks of the girls Phantom pedals are different than the boys in addition to the blocks only measuring about 3 1/4" compared the 4" blocks on the boys. To answer Pap the girls Phantoms were only made one year-1955 and were offered in all four colors; black, red, green, and blue. I'm cheating here so I don't have to take any pictures in a dimly lit room of my bike. V/r Shawn

Thanks freqman1 that pic helps a lot. I am restoring a red girl phantom and it had Wald pedals which I think where changed a long time ago. Now come the hard part looking for a nice set of this pedals. Thanks again.

I would bet that their are more black girls phantoms today then in 1955

More than not the ones I've seen don't have a '55 serial. The girls bikes are actually much rarer, in part, due to the one year only run. I personally will not touch a restored Phantom. There are still more than enough nice originals to be had. V/r Shawn

girl Phantom

I probably wouldn't have started restoring the girl phantom but it was really rough and I figured that it was better to restore it than part it out. All the major parts were still good. By the way it is a Nov. 1955 serial number.
