Schwinn info!

Do the light... Hold out for original... They pop up all the time and hey, black will be the easy one to find....

Are you saying the light will be black and not white?

No it will be white... Those colored ones are very rare..

Here is my 1950 original B6 I just acquired last week , haven't had time to do any with it yet , needs cleaned up bad ( paint is dull , but it was sitting in a barn for decades ). I need to find the rack and fender reflectors , the fender light battery tray ( or a matching front fender with tray ) . Mine actually looks brown , I can't find anywhere what colors they used on the 50 B6's . But anyway it came from the original owner , I posted a thread on it the day I bought it for info because I had to drive 240 miles to get it , I have under 900 in it so I think I done ok . It don't have the drum brake , was that a add on ?

I believe what they have been saying is that the drum brake was an option! But you could have just the schwinn front hub! Have you seen this color options photo for schwinns? Might help!

I can't read the chart , do you have a better copy or is there a site with the info , and is this for the 49 models only?
