Please help me with Schwinn Traveler pre-purchase advice
Serial # K747057, its chicago built with Shimano SIS Light Action derailleur. Sorry, no pics yet. Its $60, in great shape and it fits me. Good deal?

Moving to Appraisal sub-forum for better response. Condition is a big factor here, and I'd say $60.00 for one in excellent shape is a good deal.

1. Good deal, what kind of bike can you get for $60?
2. When was it made: Just look up the component codes, you can find them at vintage trek site.

I know it is a Schwinn. If you want to date it by checking component codes, then you need to go to the vintage Trek site.
