1968 Schwinn Stingray Boys Blue Banana Seat Muscle Bike S2 Early Krate Vintage

  
1968 SCHWINN STINGRAY BOYS BLUE BANANA SEAT MUSCLE BIKE S2 EARLY KRATE VINTAGE! Here is a rare original DECEMBER 1968 SCHWINN STINGRAY 20 BICYCLE! (MD Serial Number) This bike is from the era when most everything was cool! The HEMICUDA, Mach 1 Mustang, and Camaro Z-28 come to mind! This bike is in very original condition.

In fact, as far as I can tell, nearly every single part of this bike is original. This bike has been in VERY long term storage and has not been owned by collectors.

Be the first to get this bike back into the light and enjoy it! The bike is in the original and very appealing RADIANT BLUE factory painted color. The bike has cool wide apehanger handlebars, matching Schwinn hand grips, cool rear sissy bar and so much more! I dont know where you would find another like it! You can read the chainguard lettering fairly well unlike most of them. The bike is an original single speed with operable brakes. The seat is a blue Stingray seat with the cool Stingray tag on the rear. (guessing that was replaced) It has the original chrome Schwinn double knurled S-2 rear rim and a chrome Schwinn S7 front rim. Both front and rear tires hold air.

Both are Schwinn STINGRAY tires and I believe are original for the bike. I have a 1968 fenderless 5-speed in my own personal collection in this same color. 1968 was the first year of the Krate! This is the good era of muscle bikes!

Wolf Cyclery which is a legendary place! Now is your chance to own one of the COOLEST bikes EVER MADE! Make someone in your life happy with this one. This is a cool bike that you can enjoy for years! You RARELY find these bikes anymore!

They were all abused and thrown away back in the 1970s-80s. Finding one these days is a big challenge. They are very cool and people enjoy owning, riding, and displaying them! Most people do not sell these bikes once they have them.

Be the first to get this bike back out in the light and have fun with it! I believe this to be a fairly nice original unmolested bicycle unless otherwise noted. NOTED FLAWS It is not 100% flawless but is ok! The paint looks ok for a 45+ year old boys bike! (has some areas of paint loss as you can see in the pics) Its a look that many people like these days!

The chrome is shiney but is not perfect show quality. Both wheels have a slight wobble when you spin them. Sorry for the LONG description, these bikes really excite me. People will ENVY you when you ride by at a car show or on the street with this bike!

I try to list anything I notice with the bike. Keep in mind this is a vintage bike that has probably not been ridden for a while so it may need minor tuning, bearings greased, polishing, etc, These bikes are getting harder to find and are more popular than ever before!

You will enjoy owning, riding, and displaying it for years! People always remember these bikes but seldom see them in person.

I take them in to have them packaged so they almost always arrive in the same condition as they left us. Fed Ex just increased the rates. This is a 10+ day service and includes packing. I always try to keep things as reasonable as I can. They are all available right now!
