is a nice mens black Schwinn World Sport 12-speed road bike. This is a excellent, lightweight, Chro-moly road bike in very good condition. It is clean and 99.9% rust-free. It rides smoothly and the shifters and brakes work well. The frame size is about 68cm/26-3/4" inches from center of cranks to top of seat tube. Standover height is 36-1/2". The top tube length is about 63cm/24-3/4" inches from center of seat pole to center of the head tube, which is about 9-3/4" tall itself. This bike looks very nice for its age. I believe it's from the 1980's but I do not know which year. (The serial numbers are 4018665 on the rear drop-out, and G0184 on the other side.) It is loaded with lots of quality components. The shifters are Suntour Japan, the front derailleur is Suntour AR, and the rear derailleur is Suntour AR. T are 2 front and 6 rear sprokets. The brake levers are "Schwinn Approved" and the calipers are Dia-Compe 500. Handlebars are "Champion". The cranks say Sugino Forged Japan 170 , and the pedals are HTI. The tires are size 27 x 1-1/4, and the rims are ARAYA aluminum. The front wheel quick-release is Sunshine. The front Schwinn nameplate says Chicago. Lower frame tube has mounts for a water bottle holder. The only things to nitpick are a few small chips in the paint and t, and a bit of age cracking in the decals, but no more than read more
