Took a while to find this picture of my other heavily used bicycle. This is a 67cm 1980 Schwinn Sports Tourer that has been completely rebuilt. Frame/fork and brakes are original. Velo Orange 36 hole hubs with CR-18 27" x 1 1/4" rims and tires. Aero spokes, ie flattened. 10 X 2 shifting setup. Upright BMX cruiser handlebar and stem. This bicycle is fast and fairly light for its size. The 27" wheels work really well on dirt/gravel roads and even better on pavement. It has a noseless saddle also. Because of the more upright fork angle this bike is somewhat twitchier in its handling compared to the Varsity.
