Bike was born on July, 1968 according to the serial number on the bottom bracket. Serial number starts with GD.
Incorrect. That is a mid 1980s bike. I had one that was built in 1987. GD = Giant build I believe. It had Suntour AR derailleurs I bet, which were not used by Schwinn in the 1960s because, well, they didn't exist. Here's a link to the Schwinn Catalog pages for the 1986 Sprint. It says it comes in Blue Metallic which is the color of yours.
Comcast.net - Email currently unavailable I'm no expert but going by the chart put out by Schwinn...first letter the month...G stands for July....second letter the year....A-1965, B-1966,C-1967, D-1965 Unless this chart is wrong. But I'll defer to the experts.
The chart is correct, but only for Chicago-built bikes. That bike was made in Taiwan. An honest mistake.
