Most desirable post war bicycle?

[Cooper S.]

For me it is the 1954 CWC "Dream Bicycle" Roadmaster Skylark. Again, most people do not even know it exists with only 3 known. It has been classified as a middleweight even though they are quite heavy with their cast aluminum mono-frame. I was smitten the first time I laid eyes on this one at Mark Mattei's shop!

How many soda cans do you think it would take to make one of these?

I am only going with Schwinn on this topic because everyone knows Schwinn even if you don't have one - ride one - collect them .. When you ride as much as we do here with or without the CYCLONE COASTER crew - people always approach & ask about the bicycles we ride .. no matter what you are riding the first thing someone asks is " Is that a Schwinn ?? " -- or if it's a red bicycle then you hear people comment " Look a Pee Wee Herman bike " .. which is also a Schwinn ... just being Frank
