1986 21", 53.3 CM Schwinn Voyageur Frame/Fork/Headset/Brakes/Shifters

Probably one of the best touring bikes to come out of the 80's. Here are some specs and such:

What's included? The frame, fork, headset, Dia-compe cantilever brakes, kool stop salmon pads. The frame is awesome - it has low-rider rack mounts for mounting larger panniers in the front, two sets of eyelets in the front and back, a chain rest for easier tube/tire changes, and THREE water bottle braze ons. It's got everything you'd need for serious touring. But, you don't even have to use it for serious touring. Since the tubing isn't super stiff or oversized, it rides very smoothly with no load at all. It's Columbus tubing; 'nuff said.

To fit this bike in an ideal manner, your PBH would probably be 76-78 cm, or cycling inseam of 29-31 inches. So, that means the potential owner of this bike should be 5'4" to 5'6". I'm 5'8" and I was at the max seat post height and had to use a technomic stem to get the bars level. So, there you go.

I'm asking $200. With some rummaging at Working Bikes or Recyclery, You could easily be on the road for less than $400. 

PM me with any questions.

did you ever sell this frame?

I did. To a nice gentleman in MKE, it went.
