I can’t say I’ve seen it spelled like this before.

Is that pronounced as Skeming or as Shemming?

If you're searching for Schwinns in the ads you'd need to include all variations of the spelling. Kind of like searching for a Sportster, you need to include Sporster, Spotster, Sprotster...

You know you have truly arrived when you have a Shwimm bike next to a shiny new Cataract Eldorado in your garage.

Not a misspelling of Schwinn, but I've never seen Le Tour spelled this way before.
this is a Schwinn super latur, bought in the 80s, back when they were making top of the line bikes, comes with a spare inner tube and seat cover
