I am at a crossroads with my bikes. Over the last 10 years I have collected, reconditioned, restored , traded , sold , given away old Schwinns and enjoyed every minute of it . I have all ways kept my bikes at home as I vowed never to pay to store my hobby. Now I am at a point where I love my...

If your bike is a '55 ,the original seat was tan leatherette with a crash bar and rivets. See the original barnfind bike below. .The seat did not hold up ,to the point that the previous owner had wrapped it with Bailing wire .The is not the same as the later vinyl seat that showed up on...

It was worth your time . The '67 Sky Blue Panther is a rare bike . Once you get it cleaned up, I may have a matching slimline tank buried in my garage somewhere. Just PM me . Dave

Here is an original paint 1960 BFGoodrich that still has the original BFGoodrich tires.

A pair of 1961 Skippers. A 26" early '61 and a 24" late '61

Leave it ...you can always change your mind and paint it ,but you can never change your mind and unpaint it. Dave

These are fun bikes to build and ride . I did this 3 speed and a 5 speedster .I kept this one , another Caber has the Five speed.

I think this '68 Deluxe has been telling me to leave it the heck alone . I'm still listening.

The serial number indicates a '73 frame . The bike seems to have the right equipment as far as the picture show, but there is a lot not shown . The paint looks to be fresh,not original.The tires are new, the light is questionable, as are the pedals. There is a double cable clip missing. Still a...

Reason #12. I don't want to upset the delicate imbalance of supply and demand.

The J33 sported a standard Sting-Ray guard. The Seat was solid white vinyl. The pan was a hard side .

Can you do silver/white seats from '65-68 ? Seems to be a large demand for early non-krate seats for folks that have Deluxe,Super Deluxe and Standard Sting Rays of that Vintage. Thanks Dave

If the price is right and you just want a cool easy riding Schwinn ,go for it . But if you are looking for authentic Manta Ray keep looking. The bars, brake handles, stem, calipers, fenders,chainguard and frame appear to be from a Manta (the later repainted black) the rest of it will need to...

Don't exist. The closest I ever found were made by Electra, but the are not the same .

I pulled down the Accent that I bought new in '86 to take some pics to show you. What's not original is the seat,bottle cage, tires, and I had to replace the rear derailer in '95 due an incident with a tree branch on the Olympic Peninsula . I had straight bars on it for a decade but I put the...

This 63 Speedster was built a few years ago. New paint and decals. The fenders are stainless, originally painted. The driveline is a modern single speed freewheel. Large seat post decal is a tricky one to get straight.

1953 Schwinn Leader ...Great Bike ...one of the ones I regret letting go.

Those older Pathers are the Bomb. The 60's Panthers are nice, but don't have the same curb appeal. Here's my '68

You are correct .This is a 24" . As you can see, I repainted the bike and set it up as a banana seat bike to make it easy to ride. This bike should also have painted fenders, not Chrome.

1963 " 100 percent American made" sticker still intact.

In 1959 Schwinn introduced the twin straightbar on the Tornado, but it had a slight curve to it. Later that year it became a true twinn straightbar. In 1961 it was used on the Skipper . The bars were not continuous. Midyear 1961 it changed to a continous twinbar which continued into 1962 to be...
