Only out of the frame in that picture. There are others in the ad that show it. It is a standard dropout, not a track type. And again, this bike comes from that part of Brooklyn where everyone...

Yep, my first "10 speed" too. A white UO-10 I think it was. The der eventually snapped, the brakes made that purring noise against the ridged rim but didn't stop worth a damn in the rain. No toe...

$300 for that Schwinn doesn't sound too unreasonable. I've seen complete junk with an asking price of $300. Its at least a rideable bike with real components, not just stamped metal crap. Compare...

Weren't the lugless Viscounts prone to failure? I remember looking at them in the bike shop in the late 70s and they looked cool, without lugs and with sealed bearing hubs. I never gave them...
