Schwinn Accessories

Accessories are what makes vintage Schwinn bikes so appealing. Over the years there have been many different accessories, but they all pretty much fall into a few categories (click links below to see those accessories).

Tanks | Tires | Seats | Racks

A challenge, particularly with vintage Schwinn bicycles, is finding the correct accessories for your particular model and year. It basically requires you to search Ebay, but what if you are not sure of what accessories your bike is even supposed to have?

This page is to define, display, and document Schwinn accessories. It is just a beginning, and if you have photos or information that would make this page better or more accurate, please contact me.
