The really early ones were made in Chicago but since early 80’s all were made in Waterford, same place that made frames for Rivendell and others. Sad they just closed this summer. They’re so underrated outside the US, I got a lot of love for rare schwinn’s

Were there not a few in the 90s made in Japan?
Yeah, I'm also a Waterford fan to an extent. I very much appreciate the place they held in the hand built frame world. One of the handful of very good production shops that could do custom and production runs. In the same way that Serotta, IF, Seven, etc., were/are making great stuff and held in high regard. Waterford was definitely of the "old guard" of fine US made bikes.
Gunnar always captured my interest. Nicely made, no-nonsense frames.
I'm really glad to have something that came from that shop.

Thanks. This is certainly a Waterford made one. As I understand it, there were some years where they were made elsewhere.
This one rides really well.
