Description
One of the most sought-after vintage Schwinns — and for good reason. The Le Tour was Schwinn's Japanese-built lightweight, produced by Panasonic to a standard the Chicago factory couldn't match at the time. That partnership produced a bike with genuinely excellent craftsmanship: a light, responsive steel frame, smooth-shifting 10-speed gearing, and the kind of ride quality that keeps these bikes on the road fifty years later. This one wears a vivid blue finish with bright chrome and the classic mixte step-through frame — comfortable to mount, easy to live with, and unmistakably '70s.
