This must be one of those “dress for the job you want, not the job you have” scenarios.
the brake handles are weirdly placed
Thought the same.
And it has gears, but no shifter levers?Those are on the frame I believe, road bikes had them there in the old days
To go with the style, shift lever should have been one of those:

I want this style shifter on my trike now
Can confirm, I was there in the old days.
Schwinn made the best bikes in those days! I had a black one like this but it didn’t have the shifter. It was not easy to learn how to ride on a dirt street with an overzelous step dad making me keep doing it until I get it right… I don’t remember exactly how much blood I spilled but it was enought that I remember my mom being upset at it
My 80s Miyata road bike has frame shifters for its 2x transmission.
I love how it was made sure the steering wheel is protected from theft. 😆
Sought after
All the hand positions!
A great steering wheel that doesn’t whiff out of the window while I bicycling. That is a good idea.
