1973 Schwinn Super Sport

Have no idea if there is an interest in this but I have that above bike that I will either sell or put in the dumpster. Fairly certain I got it new in October 1973. It has an orange frame. I would describe the condition as rough. Original parts are the frame, brake levers, handlebars, and the front derailleur, and I think the pedals and brakes. The rims were replaced with 700cm (?) rims but one has broken spokes and may not be usable. The back derailleur is not original nor is the seat.

I live in south Georgia and could deliver it if you live south of Atlanta, Dothan Al, or north Florida.

Oops, I guess I should have a price - no idea if it is collectible or not so I will say $100.

Hi E - Not sure of the size but I will take some measurements.

Will try to post some pics for you after my phone charges.

I could ship at the sellers expense (and instructions on how to ship)

Last set. Let me know if you want more pics or some closeups. After taking pics, I would probably say it is very rough.

Yes it's rough, and weighs like a boat anchor, but it is a filet-brazed frame.
Here's what I did with mine...

Boat anchors are supposed to be heavy. Also, the Cadillac ride doesn't come without a weight penalty.
