60sstuff
Wore out three sets of tires already!
I purchased this BA (Feb. 25, 1965) Lime Stingray in 2001 from a guy that bought it from the Original owner.
Fork date is 2-5.
The factory Original White Smoothie is excellent along with the OEM High Loop strut.
Rear Yellow Oval Slik is 1st 1/4 ‘65 and front Westwind is a 12-4 (Dec. ‘64).
The story I got was the bike was won in a contest by a boy that was of the large size and did not enjoy riding this short frame bicycle.
So, like similar stories I’ve heard in the past this bike was relegated to a corner and not used. It shows minimal wear.
Here are some up close photos, (not 20 footers) so you can see the details of a quality 60’s Schwinn built bicycle.
