Hi Chris, That's the interesting part. The shop had just gotten the frame, and hadn't even finished unwrapping it. Also, I'd specifically asked if it was built by match, and was told it wasn't. Maybe the shop owner had never heard of match, but had been told Tim Isaac built it. Who knows... Perhaps Schwinn has a bunch of these in the back of a warehouse, and is just now getting them cleared out??

Steve K. Peoria, IL, where nice frames seem to just appear from out of the past.
