1980 Schwinn Klunker

Back Home Up Next

Later Schwinn Cruiser with a biplane type mountain bike fork and cantilever brake.  We left the original "patina" on this one and didn't clean it up any.  The rear is a Suntour coaster brake and both wheels has oversized spokes.  It feels like the right pedals has a little wobble to it.  This would be a fun bike to cruise around town or use as a bar bike.  Keep in mind that it is over 25 years old and may need a little overhauling before heavy use.  $350 + shipping.
