All-original Schwinn Le Tour II, born April 9, 1977! Down to the unworn
tires, all components are those first put on the bike by Schwinn. Nearly
flawless paint, cool original stickers and original decals, this bike
screams vintage riding at its finest. It is not likely that one would find
such a bike in from-the-store condition-- any idea how much it's worth? All
componentry info below.

It is for sale because it is too big for anyone in the family. Owning it has
been great but now my daughter needs a new road bike.
