Thanks for the suggestion. I hope our library has it. But I no longer live in suburban Chicago, where even a rather conservative electorate took pride in funding libraries and schools (CA is a hell-disaster by comparison).

Schwinn was the only game in town when I was growing up in Chicago. I had always just assumed competition from Trek made a huge contribution to their downfall. Trek produced bikes that were cool-looking, well-designed and significantly lighter. They had a hard time breaking into the Chicago-area market. I remember going to Wisconsin to get our first one.
