Hope you can keep up with her! Maybe blind her with the chrome as you are passing! That thing looks better than new. Gotta love the mohawk front fender!

Re: 1964 Schwinn Traveler

Three teenagers it will see some use. It was just cramped into a storage unit glad to give it a little tlc and a new life 8)

Re: 1964 Schwinn Traveler

Robert has family that works in a chrome shop and he had every nut, bolt, nipple, washer chromed. This bike has to be the cleanest Traveler ever. I saw it crammed in there when I picked up my bike stand today. If I had a little more coin it wouldn't be yours.

Re: 1964 Schwinn Traveler

I love black Schwinns. That has to be one of the nicest black Schwinns I've ever seen, and I'm no fan of skinny tire bikes. I'd make room in my collection for that one anytime. 8)

Didn't Travelers have stainless fenders? Are those chromed steel or polished stainless? Gary

Re: 1964 Schwinn Traveler

Fenders are stainless but they are polished so good they are close to chrome...I know this sounds bad butt I'm glad you didn't have the coin cameron .butt your welcome to ride or borrow it anytime
