Susanne K’s 1980 Schwinn Le Tour

Susanne K’s 1980 Schwinn LeTour.

1980 Schwinn LeTour I love old 10 speeds, but there are not enough ladies models out there and I noticed this site did not have any. I replaced the handlebars and seat on this bright blue beauty when I bought it in 1981. I have kept it in tip-top condition all these years and have noticed that it turns heads wherever I take it.

    Susanne K., GIRLS RULE…..
    I love the way that you set it up to the more upright riding position with the added bars. It’s a classy little ride and looks to be in great condition.
    Someone please correct me if I am wrong, but can’t a mixte go both ways? Male/female? A mixte (what your Le Tour is) is a compromise between both a mens’ bike and a womens’ bike. If you look back through the archives you will find quite a few womens’ bikes. I personally contributed one not so long ago. See: tag Schwinn World Sport.
    Regardless, she’s a beauty!

    * to note: this was just given to me by a coworker, a 1980 Schwinn Cruiser. Same year and color as your Le Tour, but how I wish it was in the same condition as yours 🙁
