Was there a 26" middleweight Girls 3 Speed Bike offered in 1970

If there was can anyone tell me the model? If there wasnt can someone tell me the closest model yr there was (ex. Pre 1970 or post 1970)

The only girls 3 speed middleweight in 1970 was the 20" Fair Lady. No 26" three speeds until you get back to 1962, the Co-ed. I highly doubt there was one post 1970.

Or what about a 26" middleweight girls bike that used a frame with a caliper brake rear fender bracket

No 3 speed womens middleweight in 70, just a single, and 2 speed Hollywood.

Closest thing would be a lightweight. From the 1970 catalog from the link above. There was a 26" 3 speed.

Or was there any Schwinn's 26" girls model middleweight that just had the rear bracket for caliper brakes?

I have a 69 deluxe 3 speed typhoon & a 70 3 speed typhoon and I need a 3 speed Hollywood I know they didnt make one that year but I would like to build it to match my other 3 speeds in every way except color and just frame

A ladies cruiser from 1981 will have the caliper bracket. In 1980 they were still round

The Cruisers were Balloon bikes, so you're pretty limited finding a middleweight girls frame set up for the caliper brakes. I doubt you'll ever find one that's later than a 1962 model because they were non existent. You'll find plenty of them from 1955-1962. Here's a 1959 that was for sale here locally for $150.
