More Info:
1989. Schwinn's attempt to stay relevant in the tandem game. What is noteworthy about these frames is that they were lugged (very uncommon on tandems) and that the extremely oversized steel tubing (I know it looks aluminium, it's not) was contracted thru the Panasonic plant. They also came with primarily Sakae and Cinelli components. I left pretty much all stock parts except the cockpits, preferring straights and triggers for casual around town shredding.
