1961 Schwinn Tornado This all original, mint bicycle is a 1960 men~s (yes, it is an adult bike) Schwinn Tornado. My father purchased it for me as a christmas present (it takes place of the shotguns he has bought for my brothers). This picture was taken when I had my senior photos shot. Everyone at the photo place looked upon it with awe! This is my favorite ride next to my stingrays. Over all, an excellent bike.
Great bike. It reminds me of a similar if not identical bike I got for Christmas around 1958/59. I didn't know how to ride at the time but it came with training wheels. I'll have to check with my dad to see what model it was. When I find out, I'll be adding one to my collection.
