Kurt,

I don't think it's painted. A certain someone, whose name shall not be spoken, expected it to be painted in exchange for promised graphic work (the kind that are applied to the painted surfaces of bike frames in order to identify them). Well, when the one whose name shall not be spoken, demanded the frame back
the Doctor held it hostage. After all, Dr.D had custom painted a Super Sport, including fenders, for the one whose name shall not be spoken, in exchange for the graphics work (which was never delivered). All told, it was easily a $800-1000 job. Then the one whose name shall not be spoken turned around and sold the SS for under $300.

My guess is that the Sports Tourer frameset is an unpleasent reminder of the one whose name shall not be spoken. Instead of the good Doctor working through his angst by beating out his frustrations with a hammer on CroMolly, he's doing his best to find an adopting new owner for this poor victum of the one whose name shall not be spoken.

Q. WTF is so great about that particular model Schwinn?
A. It has a low first gear, and a joy to ride. It is my favorite of the 45 bikes I have.

KEEP TRACK OF THE NUMBER OF BIKES YOU ARE BUYING! I did not try to get 45.
The new Sports Tourer decals are in process.

WHoooa, Nellie! :eek:

This frame is STOCK paint! Scratches, rust & all. (no dings, dents or bends though)
No fork & no kickstand.

It's either going for a few dollars over shipping cost or

I CHUCK IT OFF THE PEIR! :D

The wife would prefer the former, ....but I'D prefer the LATTER! :p

I just wanted to offer it a better home than the bottom of the BAY! ...and I don't mean Ebay! :eek:

SOooo, some one save it before I commit C&V BLASPHEMY!!! :p

(and NO! I WILL NOT PAINT IT! EVER!! FOR ANY PRICE!!):mad:

It goes to ______________________, or it goes for a swim!

P.s. I had this reply ready to post directly following Kurts statement, but the BF system was down at that moment, so I turned in then. But PastorBob is corre.....:D

Oh.... well...... In that case, I'll give you $5 for it, but you gotta deliver it to me. :D

Does anyone know what the standover is for a 24" ST?

Pardon me good Dr. D., just a reminder.

Monterey Bay is part of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary and is therefore protected from deposits of vintage bicycle frames, including Schwinn. ;)

Avoid arrest and fines, send it to bigbossman. :)

33" Give or take a bit.

Being a lifetime local, I have many "friends" at the Aquarium! :D

It'll be "deposited" for research purposes only! ;)

OR...Bossman will show up at my door and take it away.

WAIT...isn't he a DIVER?? :p

D'OOoooH!

Whoops - looks like I had it confused with the Super Sport.

Let me rephrase what I said before:

Poop. Oh well, best of luck to the rest of you.

And I think the concensus on the Schwinn Forum was that the stays were 1020 carbon steel (the Schwinn specs were a bit confusing on the point in early publications).

an it musta been the wrong time...I hit garage sales got an ols skip tooth with a new departure ,a monarch thunderbird,an Italian boom bike etc. but I love the yellow color on that sports tourer.I am sure it is gone I will post pics of the Italian sometime.It has a cheap sticker headbadge but it worked and after digging through piles of forlorn relics,I got it for 5.00 US. in NW wisconsin where life is beautiful all the time.
