Rare 50th Anniversary Schwinn Cruiser

Canadian Geese no less. Their poo is annoying clumping in the tires. Sorry about that Chief.

Yeah, riding and poop dodging is an acquired skill in that park!
Get Smart is an all time fav of mine and a Mel Brooks Classic!

Are there any homeless camps in that park Ron?

 

[SoBayRon]

Nope. They enforce the no overnight camping rule there, surprisingly.

I picked up this 7 speed 2016 Signature Series Schwinn Panther yesterday at a yard sale. What a nice riding bike this is with the 27.5 wheels on it. It comes complete with bottle opener, and cup holder built in..................!

Nice! Congrats, man!!
I have yet to ride a 27.5 wheel-size bike. I'm actually currently working on a trade for one, but the guy's flaking out on me...

Love the color of your new bike! Looks pretty mint, too!

Yea, it is in great shape. Probably going to flip it though. These Signature Series are the bikes that Schwinn sold through bike shops and not Walmarts. Very good quality bikes.

This bike is now for sale on Ebay if anyone is interested?

Some of the Signature Schwinn bikes I’ve ridden are decent. I haven’t ridden a 27.5” bike but I have two 29” SE bikes. A Fast ripper which lives up to its name but it also has a surprising plush ride considering it has an aluminium frame. The Big style canti style cruiser is steel, huge and has a lazy feel, a result of its really long chainstays. It does ride and roll along well though.

I do have another Signature Series bike, a 2012 deluxe cruiser. It also has the aluminum frame with 26" wheels, and a rear 2 speed kick-back hub.

I also recently purchased one of the limited edition 27.5 PK Ripper in silver/black. And this is a sweet riding bike!
