Looks like they did do it. Huh. I do not recall any of those. We sold probably 10 Cimmerons in 1987 (most people bought Sierras...less $$, or Fishers, more $$). After that, the KOM was all the rage, then the Kestral, . Almost seems like they had some 87's left over and marketed them as '88's. I cannot quite tell if the fork in the picture has the mid-fork brase-ons or not. Most of the earlier Schwinns had them, but they seemed to go away about 1987ish.
I do not have any replacement forks with the mid-fork braze-ons. Sorry.
