The yellow is among the most desirable of Schwinn colors, especially pre-72 models which often had the red lug lining. Very beautiful. That brown color was more like a rood beer than a chocolate, as I recall. Peter Weigle had the best of this color. The bike I owned was root beer colored indoors or in poor light but a stunning dark gold in sunlight.
