    Description

    Vintage 1973 Schwinn Varsity in Sunset Orange. All original - restored and fully serviced. Small 20 inch frame. I got this bike from the original owner who had it up in their garage attic for the past 20 years. It has been fully disassembled down to the bearings and spokes. All of the parts have been cleaned and polished. Any of the components that were worn or rusted were replaced with original 1970s Schwinn parts. New 27 x 1 1/4 Kenda gumwall tires and tubes have been installed along with new brakes. And finally I got a NOS roll of vintage Schwinn orange bar tape with chrome plugs. The bike rides smooth. I shined up the original Sunset Orange paint. It has some chips and scratches on it, but no serious rust or any kind of damage. It is a Small 20 inch frame from the center of the crank to the top of the seat post. The step-over height is 30 1/2 inches from the ground to the top of the cross bar.
    Local pick-up is available for this bike.
    If this bike is shipped to you, it will be packed by my local bike shop using a bike shipping box.  Shipping is done through ShipBikes.  The bike will need to be partially disassembled to be properly packed, so some reassembly will be required.  Usually the wheels, handlebars and pedals are removed.
