Comment on Schwinn Sports Tourer by Will

Will — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 17:08:03 +0000

Hi,
I’m looking to buy a Schwinn Sports Tourer from the early 70’s regardless of condition. Can be just parts, or the whole thing. I’m in NJ.
I bought one in 1972, 24” frame. Rode it to Alaska, and would like to get one back together.. Send me an email haawill@yahoo.com
Thanks!

Jess, if you are working in a regular shop, invest in a Park Tools stand. I would love one, but can’t really justify the cost for the occasional work I do on bikes. But if I had a regular shop, I would get a Park Tools stand. Definately!

great plan for a stand. I desperately need one at work so I’m going to do something similar but the bottom support won’t be so necesarry as I will use a hole saw to fit it through our shop bench. Then it will split into two directions at the top so I can have two tee’s at the top horizontal bar. One smaller tee cut in half for speed bikes, and one larger tee cut in half for mountain bikes. The trick will be getting two different sized tees on the same bar. Will need a converter/adaptor type thing.

Thanks Rob. I still like the bike, although my body is trying to tell me something.

I have a Reliant also. I bought new in the spring of 1980. It’s a silver blue color and still looks good. I screwed up though a few years ago and took it to the beach, so the spokes are pretty rusty.
Can you tell me what the tire size is? I need to replace them and can’t make out the label on the old sidewalls.

It was given to us, but missing the hitch. The year is imperative to re-ordering. 2003 or earlier requires one model, earlier requires another. Serial number is AA440113.

Thanks!

i seall dig this your clamp works well but i was not sold on the base. so i took an old craftsman Twin Lamp Halogen Floodlight base removed the top and made two clamps one with a 1/4 20 bolt to atatch to the stand holding a horozontal 18 inch pvc pipe schedule 80 and the other for the bike. thus making the stand fully articulating. i have bin in the custom mettal fab industry for some time now and not much impresses me anymore but this clamp. its a good idea. i will have some pictures to post of an aluminum version soon
