These were made by National. The Voyageur SP was about the same. The smaller and mid sizes were SL and the taller were SP. I have both a Peloton and the Voyageur and they are both a really nice ride.

Hey, folks.

There's a Schwinn Peloton available in these parts that I'm pretty sure I'm going to buy. SunTour Superbe Pro derailleurs, Sugino Aero Mighty crank, DiaCompe 400 brakes, chromed dropouts, Araya aero tubular rims. . . .

This is one of the Schwinns that was made in Japan, 1984-86, its lugged frame of Columbus tubing. (Thanks to Lou and his database for the date!)

Does anyone know who made these for Schwinn? They seem pretty nice to me, and aside from the fact I'll need a longer stem, this one felt really nice when I rode it around the lot.

Anyway, I'm just curious if anyone knows more about who made the frames.

Thanks!
