This is a 1970 Chicago Schwinn Deluxe Twinn Tandem.It is original and in great riding condition. If you are buying one of these to ride, you will want the 5 speed. The single speed tandems are very hard to pedal up hill and hard to stop going down. The 2 speed kick backs are a little better. This is much more fun to ride with 5 speeds and a good Atom drum brake to stop. Shifts nicely through all 5 gears. Brakes work well. The front brake is nice for holding the bike still while mounting and dismounting. This has 26 x 1 3/4 Schwinn Westwind tires on stamped S7 chrome rims with heavy duty spokes. The tires will be fine to ride on I like riding these with middle-weight wheels rather than the thinner tires (26 x 1 3/8) that are on some of the Schwinn Tandems The paint and screening are nice with a few scratches. I don't often find original paint as good as this. Nice fenders with a small dent in the rear. Nice original reflector and grips. Good original seats. Nice original pedals. Most of the chrome is pretty good. The rear rim has some rust through the chrome. The front rim is nice. T is some thin chrome on the handlebars and cranks. The long rear brake cable is frayed.
