Vintage U. S. A. Schwinn Stingray Fastback 5-Speed (local pickup only)

  

MADE IN USA Vintage Schwinn Stingray Fastback. Pics are of the actual vintage 5 speed bike for sale, they are not reused pics. This bike has it's original dry rotted schwinn tires.

Other than minor cable adjustments this bike seems to be a few minutes polishing away from fullfilling it's potential to really shine. Biggest issue i see is there is a long crack in the chrome main seat post which causes the seat to be slightly crooked. I looked very closely with a flashlight around the frame where that seat post installs, and there are no cracks, but there may be a very slight distortion in the very end of the frame where that main seat post installs. A new chrome seat post that isn't cracked would likely remedy the issue completely.

The 8 ball style shifter looks great and other than probably needing minor cable adjustment it shifts through the gears. Brakes of course would need a little cable adjustment i'm sure. And as i say it has original very old dry rotted schwinn tires at the moment, the the new owner will need to wait to ride it until they install new tires. It can be tested by placing the bike upside down& going through the functions of course, and when i did so the bike did shift both up and down the gears. And while the original tires are deflated, the original schwinn rims spin true.
