This is agruably one of the very COOLEST Schwinn bikes of all time! EVERY kid wanted one back in the day... Few were lucky enough to own one.
You did not see them often back in the day, and almost NEVER see them in any condition these days! They were designed after the drag racing muscle cars of the time! They hit the nail on the head with this one!
The bike is LOADED with cool options only found on the top of the line "Krate" series at the time. The bike has the cool correct ORIGINAL PAINT "cantalever" 5-speed Schwinn frame, cool wide apehanger handlebars, matching Schwinn yellow glitter hand grips, chrome Schwinn SPRINGER front forks, cool Schwinn pedals, chrome front and rear fenders, (front has a small split at the tip) 5-speed "Mag" sprocket, cool rear sissy bar SHOCKS sissy bar, and so much more! It has the cool Schwinn S7 front rim with the correct ATOM drum brake. The rear wheel is the double knurled Schwinn S2 rear wheel. Both front and rear tires hold air. The front tire is a Schwinn Superior. The rear tire is Schwinn raised letter Slick tire!I dont know where you would find another like it! It has the correct ORIGINAL SCREEN 5-speed chainguard. The bike is an original 5-speed STICK SHIFT with overload tube and with operable hand controlled brakes.
(may need basic adjustment) I rode this one a couple miles and it is FUN! The seat is original and shows some age. Has a newer rear reflector. Bike appears to be basically all original parts from when it was new.
(See pics and be your own judge). 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. The bike is not bad considering its age. I had this one on display inside my home and people LOVE it! The paint is original but does have obvious chips scratches, scrapes, etc. (see pics, has survived better than many) The chrome is shiney but is not perfect show quality.
(shows age see pics) Both wheels have a slight wobble when you spin them. (most every used bike out there seems to) I got this just like you see it. I took lots and have nothing to hide. I dont want you to get it and be unhappy for any reason after These are AWESOME bikes! I have owned a July 73 for 15+ years and it hangs on my wall!Everyone that comes here LOVES IT! Most people do not sell them who have them. I hope you love it! This is arguably the TOP OF THE LINE Schwinn Stingray bike ever made!
People who have them do not sell them. Take good care of this and it will only go UP in value! Own this one for less starting with no reserve! Flawless originals sell for thousands of dollars! Own this one for much less! People will ABSOLUTELY LOVE seeing you riding this one!Take it to a car show or cruise night! People remember these but never see them these days! People will talke about you and your cool bike for years! 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.They are all available right now! I try my very best to describe as accurately as possible.
