Here is more “Reference“ information on the handlebar “stem” used on the early Stingray.
A few photos of the triangle paper sticker.
A spare I have showing red letters and outline.
I have two Stingrays with this sticker, my Red ‘63 and my Black ‘65 as shown.
I also have a few early stems showing another triangle “decal” stating the importance of the MAX. HT.
The Schwinn Reporter information on the change in the diameter of stem and fork tube/knurling, plus fork locknut change.
