84? Le Tour I picked up last Sunday for $35. I mostly was held up by rain on the rebuild. Swapped on some Mavic rims with Suntour cartridge bearing hubs, A honey B.17 from CL, and yellow cloth with amber shellac. I also used a Suntour edge RD, for buttery shifting. I may throw the original ARX back on it, or maybe Cyclone M-II. Man it rides nice, Schwinns always seem to pleasantly surprise me that way. I also put "NOS" decals on it, from a Le Tour Luxe. Clipped the "luxe" off to keep from impersonating a nicer bike.,,,,BD
