The Schwinn Racer was a bicycle in the lightweight series of bikes built by Schwinn Bicycle Company in Chicago from the 1950s-1970s. They had a Sturmey Archer 3 speed with 26 x 1 3/8 tires. They also came with single speed coaster brakes (Schwinn 1960 catalog). Many were accessorized with speedometers, generators, baskets and rear racks. These parts made by Schwinn and installed by the selling dealer. As the ten-speed road bikes with derailleurs became more fashionable, these bikes lost their appeal. Today, they are mostly seen on college campuses, on casual riding bike paths and in museums.
