Does anyone know what I have here? It was picked up in the Pennsylvania Dutch country and belonged to a German family that moved to the USA.
I know factually it sat in the basement of someone's house for about 35 years untouched. It has West German markings on it but nothing definitive . The sprocket is smaller than you standard Schwiwn and the only identifiers are back coaster brake -"Centrix-Made in West Germany", pedals "Made in Germany" Rear tire is a Kenda slick and front tire "Continental Made in Germany."
Now I know the first inclination is to say, ":Hey I think you have a German bike," so let me save you the trouble casue that was my first reaction. No frame markings which would be the key. Thanks for you help ....JAY
