I forgot to mention the frame model.
It's a 1991 Schwinn High Plains with a lugged steel double butted tube set according to the Schwinn catalog page.
It had a black paint with white streaks and a tough white primer.
It was a pain to get all the paint off but worth it to save the dough by doing it myself.
I usually weigh the frames and forks after I disassemble them and this frame and fork came
in at about the same as my blue 1990 Rockhopper in the 7.5 lb range for both frame and fork.
I would need to double check where I wrote it down but that's pretty close.
