Ya may have to ask the Schwinn snobs on thier forum...

Beware,they might get mad for what youre tryin' to do.

...OR the CABE

They are a little more layed back on there.

well im not schwinn expert but a 64 would have had a
Schwinn S2 rear and S7 front rim,
schwinn rear slik 20 x 2.125
schwinn front westwind tire 20 x 1 3/4
the "lucky 7" non mag sprocket
and the reg stingray seat what seat depends on what color.... only "deluxe" and fastbacks got the seats with the chrome mylar strips ???
ok now I gotta wait for the real experts to tell me if im right or wrong :wink:

You may have a better chance of seeing GOD,than finding a 24" springer.

Schwinn Krate bikes had them...$$$

The specs say it had a knobby, but a slick would be better.

could just run a blade style fork like the stingrays had, only the super deluxes had a springer. and if you did want to run one id just run a 26" springer not that much bigger
