My lime 1974 small frame. Beautiful bike in the first year for it in this color! It is a duplicate of a bike I ordered new in the spring of 1974, but was forced to sell it a year later so I could buy my first car. I picked this one up at a Quakertown, PA antiques mall in 2009 to replace it. My original lime Sub was a 22 inch frame bike with a regular Schwinn Ashtabula drop forged blade fork, instead of the normal tubular fork, which made it a bit odd, as they were supposed to have the tubular. I guess their supplier at the time could not keep up with tubular forks for my Sub, so it was equipped with the Ashtabula unit. I was a bit disappointed when I got the bike, and it was not as it was supposed to be. The bike shop owner said if I wasn't happy with it, they would buy it back from me and I could have walked away from it, but I decided to keep it.
