Did you look in the for sale thread ?

I have a 26 inch frame from a 73 heavy duti. It appears to be straight, but it's ugly and will need to be stripped to the bare metal and repainted.

I've got a Traveler in good shape. 36" from the ground to the top tube. I think the seat tube is a 29"
My 6'2" son has one too and loves it. But it's a ten speed not a cruiser.

Carl.

He is looking for a specific frame. The King Size Schwinn was a specific model frame size designation for a 26” S7 wheel middleweight frame cantilever produced in limited production from 1961-1965, that had a 20” seat tube and a 22.5” top tube vs the 18.5 seat tube and 21” top tube of the standard 26” S7 wheel middleweight cantilever frame.

Oh, I didn't realize that it was a specific frame.

Thanks for your input everybody. At this time I may be taking this in another direction. Stay tuned!

I know you specified a Schwinn, but Huffy made a canti framed bike with 29 inch rims and tires that may fit your height until you find the one you really want...
