'Lil Knee Scuffer
I purchased this red StingRay, used in 1978 for our daughter. The bike ended up being too heavy for our petite girl, so she rode it very little. The seat-height was never changed from when she learned to ride bike-it is 3/8" above the frame. It has spent most of its life stored and moved with us for half of a century. Time to down-size our “stuff.” This is a nice original StingRay, still sitting on the original Schwinn tires! The boxed StingRay weighs 45 pounds, box size: 50.5” x 29” x 7.5” Frame is covered with protective pipe insulation for shipping.
Description:
• Classic StingRay, 100% 1975 factory Schwinn parts
• The serial number on the head tube dates the bike, September 1975.
• Original black banana seat.
• Original Sissy bar
• Original Metallic Red, Schwinn grips
• Original Schwinn pedals
• Original StingRay chain guard
• Original Schwinn “StingRay” tires • Includes a handle-bar bell.
Condition:
• Nice original red paint has normal kid wear, most from the original owner, a boy. I rate the paint at 7 points on a 10 point scale, some scratching due to normal child wear. The serial date code and badge clearly indicates this is a Chicago Schwinn.
• Frame is straight with no brazing cracks or damage, 10 points on 10 point scale.
• Seat has some scuffing on the right-side, see picture for scuffing. 6-7 on a 10 point scale.
• Chrome fenders and rims, bright and clean, 9 points on 10 point scale—practically perfect.
• Original tires and tubes. Tires show age checking/cracking but the tubes still hold air—for display purposes only, not for riding.
• Bike is partially dissembled for shipping. Rear wheel removed to fit box, tires are deflated. Pedals and chain removed and boxed with handle-bar bell.
• Additional specific photos available, something you'd like to see, just ask.
• This is a great vintage 1975 StingRay. It would make a nice collector display piece or nostalgic rider.
