As promised;
I measured both from the center of seat post at base to the center of stem at the base .
Electra 25 1/2” , Schwinn Swindler 26 1/2” . Give or take 1/16-1/8”
So the Swindler is a little longer in the toptube . I thought it would be . It feels like it has a longer reach that an Electra , but I thought it might be in the bars , but nope , the Schwinn is longer .
And good news , I found where the ball bearings escaped and they are now locked back up inside the bottom bracket . They fell out of the cage when I was greasing up the chain ring side . Some of that awesome Chinese quality .
. They snapped back into place .
I knew that was where they had to have come from , everything else has smaller bearings .
