Also, not 1960s, more like early 1970s. I rode that bike, mine was a '74 in the light blue, 22.5" frame. After upgrading to alloy suntour derailleurs, alloy handlebars and SR cranks, and alloy rims, it weighed ~27 lbs. It had a nice ride, though, for straight gauge steel. My wife rode it for ~10 years after college, where I grew another few inches.
