Big Jim’s 1972 Schwinn Continental

1972 Schwinn Continental
Bought this off St. Louis Craigslist

It was set up for touring, with an unusual Sanyo generator and sealed beam light, rear rack, pop up flag, toe clips and springer saddle. It’s in great shape, except the tires were badly dry rotted. I put it on the trainer last winter and used it until recently before i finally changed the tires and tubes. Super heavy, but the steel frame is like butter on road bumps.
