Welcome to BikeForums.
Stop by the Classic & Vintage forum. They like pics. Plus the pic may help identify the bike.

Bikes: 1988 Schwinn Circuit. Bike-Boom-Puegeot. First "real bike" Trek 720 Hybrid in gross disrepair.

Hello from an hour and a half south.

There's a great undercurrent of love/respect/debate concerning the Schwinn Bicycle Company. I dig their story. Perhaps a bit too much.

You'll get directed to the Schwinn Catalog archive frequently so I'll be the first one to link you there. Here's the 84 Le Tour. https://www.trfindley.com/flschwinn_1...984Ltwt09.html index for the catalogs: https://www.trfindley.com/pg_schwinn_cats.htm

RonH is right, pictures are a must here.

thanks all. i assume mine is a greenville bike, but is missing a great deal of the original equipment, so I may switch it to a single speed, and make it simple. It rides great though, I really enjoy it.

Hey there, mem. Welcome to BF!

What sort of gearing does your Le Tour have?
