KP,

I'm in Super Sport SS/FG heaven! Fillet brazed frames have an appeal which is hard to beat. Many of us have to thank Schwinn for using this method to mass produce (sort of) this frame for almost two decades. Even a poorly maintained Super Sport/Sports Tourer/Superior frame provides nearly endless creative possibilities. Another job well done!

What type of stem did you use? Did Schwinn use a larger then .833" stem in '69?
