Cruisin' on my Bluebird
Just picked this Schwinn Typhoon up from original owner. Dates from April 64. Dirty, but not much rust. I know nothing about middleweights. Sold my original Phantom in '63 for 8 bucks when these banana seats were first coming out. Looks like a cool bike for the old tinker to tool around town on. Paid 50 bucks. She would have taken 20. I never mess with middle weights or these little bikes. I think it's worth the 50. What do you Schwinn guys think? Did this bike have fenders? Anyone got a photo of an original one? I think it's a 24 inch frame. It measures 41" , axle to axel. Thanks, Tink. I asked her if she had any other stuff in the garage, I would have loved to poke around. They lived there since 64. She didn't know and I didn't want to be pushy. Do you guys think it came this way, or was it a standard Typhoon, that was made into a krate looking bike?
