Bought a Schwinn today...

The serial number is on the BB...

It has 24" wheels...

Says Chicago on the head badge...

But, can't find the serial number on the internet anywhere... It starts with ECR... on the BB shell...

Any places to look? Or, ideas?

Take a close look at the head badge. There may be a four digit code stamped there. The first three digits are the day of the year and the last digit is the year itself.

Example: 1346 would translate to the 134th day of a year ending in 6. You'll have to dig deeper into schwinns product lineup to determine the decade of manufacture.
