This post got me wondering where the term Sissy bar came from?...did Schwinn actually call it that?...I assume it was a slang name that caught on since your rider your doubling used it to hold on and was a Sizzy?
 
I always thought "sissy bar" referred only to the tall ones.

a tall sissy bar saved my butt one time when a friend and I were flying down a hill with a big bump at the end, I was on the back and went flying upwards when we hit the bump, I would have flew off to who knows where but stayed on the bike saved by the sissy bar.

it was a blue Schwinn Stingray with whitewalls and chrome Fenders. then he got an Apple Krate.. probably the first year. all I had were hand me downs, we were poor but nobody ever told me so it didn't matter.
