Can You Recognize This Bike?
Hey guys. This is a repost from road bikes; I realized this would be a better place for this question. Just wondering if anyone knew what kind of bike this is? I was really more interested in the year than anything else. All I know is that it's a Schwinn.

Schwinn Suburban (a bit of the name is still visible on the downtube). Serial number shall be on headtube - most reliable method of dating. Probably anywhere between late '60s and 1976. Early to mid '70s most likely. Looks like a replacement Schwinn chainguard.

Suburbans did not appear until 1970. They came in brown for a number of years. Take a look here to help you date it. https://www.geocities.com/sldatabook/detail7074.html
