Schwinn Sports Tourer $300, Central IA
Sold.
I'm not shipping this bike but perhaps there is someone within a reasonable drive of Des Moines who might be interested. This is a fairly pristine '72 Schwinn Sports Tourer. It is completely original other than the consumables. I overhauled the bike a few years back and replaced the cable housing and cables at that time. Schwinn calls this a 24 inch frame; I'd call it a 23 inch frame. I don't particularly want to let this go but it's time that this bike found a new home.

These are good cranks and, unlike the other French cranks of that era, they do not need a special puller.

There's a decent magenta one in my size nearby down to $80, but I already have one. Glad you found a new home for this one.
