I came across a very clean 1960/61 ish American. I wanted it, but it was way too small to ride. I found out that there is a King-size version, and they demand a lot more money. I am very fond of old Schwinns. I recently restored a Campus Green Varsity that I picked up for $40. I flipped it after giving it a lot of love. Got $175 for it. Again, it was a small frame.
Those Schwinns are a joy to overhaul. So simple in comparison to a Raleigh.
No special tools required except for an Atom freewheel socket. No metric, no whitworth.
I still have so much SAE tools, and these bikes keep my tools useful😁
