Up for sale is a fully restored 1963 Schwinn Cycle Truck - Also known as the USPS Mail Delivery Bike.
The bike has been fully mechanically refurbished/restored and professionally powder coated orange and white and rides great.
Correct Cycle Truck Parts:
Schwinn S2 correct wheels with heavy duty spokes - new correct spokes installed for the resto. New whitewall tires.
Correct/original fenders, sprocket, chain guard, goose neck, handle bars and grips, as well as front wheel stand, and front basket supports.
Parts that are not original to the bike:
the seat not original style but similar looking (and much more comfortable)
"old style look" pedals with reflectors (for safety)
brand new Wald front basket (smaller than original) with wood base
advertising panel between upper and lower frame is wood, cut from original panel as a pattern
Head Badge is vintage Schwinn, but not a cycle truck badge
Rear fender reflectors (added for safety)
This bike was originally used by the post office and was engraved on the upper frame with a number - I assume for tracking purposes. I have tried to show this in one of the pictures as it is still slightly visible. The rear fender is the original and does have some of the original dents and marks that I was unable to fully smooth out prior to powder coat.
Im asking $1000 obo for the bike. Buyer can pay actual shipping, which is a little more than a normal bike due to the basket. I'm in Phoenix AZ.
