Vintage Schwinn Super Sport ladies bicycle

Description

Vintage 1973 Schwinn Super Sport Ladies bicycle with a 20" frame. This should fit riders between 5' 2" to 5' 10". Has a very long seat post that gives it a wide range of rider height. My wife is 5' 3" and it fits her excellent. Her friend is 5' 9" and it fits her as well. Very clean, original condition. All components have been inspected, cleaned and re-lubed where needed, including fresh grease for the bottom bracket bearings, headset, and wheel bearings. Has the original Schwinn approved front brake caliper, and Weinmann side pull 810 rear brake. Original chrome fenders front and rear with no rust! Original Schwinn approved rear rat trap rack with reflector. Shifts and rides very smooth, just like it when it was new. Has a nice cushy seat, and cruiser style handlebars. The brake levers are Resentel and work well. The rear derailleur is a newer 1980's Suntour AR, very smooth shifting. The front derailleur is the original Schwinn approved. The front rim was replaced with a very nice Ukai aluminum composite 27 x 1 1/4". The rear is chromed steel Araya. Both in good condition. The spokes do have some staining and rust in a few places but still serviceable. Pedals are French Atom rat trap style. Front tire is nos, back is old stock with gumwall that is showing its age but tread like new.This is one of the smoothest riding old classic Schwinns's I have ridden, very nice Super Sport in above average condition.
