Can I use a schwinn tandem blade fork on a 80's schwinn cruiser with the stock cruiser 26" rim/tire?
 
Yes the Twinn fork is just heavier made, it used a 26" tire. If your bike is a Chicago Schwinn, then it'll probably fit just like the original. If the head tube is the same length.
 
Thanks Wildcat & Bicycle808 for the information. I don't believe it is a giant-built. It is early 80's maybe even 79. I haven't checked the serial number. I will be sure to measure the head tube before I make a purchase.
 
If it's late 70s/early 80s, then it's Chicago-built, and (as Wildcat said) it should be a direct drop-in fit, if you're using the original headset or one with a similar stack-height. Post pictures when it's done; bet it's gonna be rad.

It's finished. The tandem fork worked.
