    Anybody want it?

    It was in the free bin at my apartments.

    It's a little trashed, but together with matching fenders.

    Weighs about 70lbs and has the FF system, 1 piece cranks.

    Looks rideable with some tubes and a new front brake lever. Pretty stylish.

    those older schwinns are SUPER HEAVY! I think they're made of pig iron or something similar. I had a Schwinn Varsity that was a fucking tank. Solid, but too heavy. I'd guess maybe not 70lbs, but it's gonna be much heavier than most other bikes you're used to.

    To put it in perspective, I had to use both arms to bring it upstairs. And I'm like Hulk jr.
