A friend gave me a mid 70's Schwinn Suburban last night. It was too big for him - i'm 6'2" and it fits me pretty well. It's a real beauty...I'll have to post some pics soon. It's blue with white pin stripes on the fenders, and has the original saddle bag. The overall condition is very good, just a few small dings in the paint. And as I've been telling people today, it rides as good as it looks. It has a very solid ride and feel to it, and shifts and brakes extremely well. What a great bike for short trips around town.
