1940 4 Star, Elgin Sport Model.

1941/42 Schwinn built, Goodrich Defense Model.
Technically, the only model Schwinn built, that could’ve been supplied with a U Bar.
Of course anything was possible aftermarket, but the only mention of the Torrington U bar in any of the Schwinn catalogs, was for the Defense model, if supplies of the SB (Swept Back) bar ran out.
I have no idea, if any bikes were ever actually shipped this way, but I thought it was just an interesting factoid, since these have always been one of my favorite bend of handlebars.

Always on the lookout for wide, low rise moon bars.....

I've entered 2 sets of 4 moons. Call it "bars and backsides."

One of the most iconic models to have been factory equipped with the big wide,
“Half Moon” type Torrington U Bar.

The 1937 Roadmaster Supreme.
