1979 Schwinn Spitfire guard, frame, fork.
Is this a balloon or middle weight frame ?

Good question. The tire size is 26 x 2.125 and Spitfires came with S2 rims.
Not certain. However, in addition to the guard graphics, the top tube graphics are block letters on the Spitfire vs script letters.Other than the chainguard graphics, is a Spitfire any different from the other 70's Schwinn cantilever frames like a Heavy Duty frame, etc., is?
Gotcha. The rear brake bridge did not appear on the Cruiser / Cruiser 5 ( both replacements for the Spitfire / Spitfire 5) until 1980.Usually all the frames I see from the 70s
Have the rear bracket for the canti. Brakes instead of the the fender brace , that's why I asked if it was a balloon tire frame .
