Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter
You'd probably do better posting this in the C&V forum.
Folks here are more about fixing than identifying vintage parts.
One hint to knowing whether it was original to Schwinn is the rim. Back then Schwinn was using unique tire sizes, so it's relatively easy to know if the wheel is OEM.
Of course the hub may be original, but the built wheel not.
