Schwinn 2020 125th Anniversary Orange Krate

Local pick purchase back in November 2021 for $200.00

I still have mine that my parents bought me in 1972. It's in bad shape, so I'm sure it would cost me thousands to restore.

Post some pics and describe the parts and hardware you might need to put it back together. I find out sometimes maybe cheaper to find parts in groups then auction site. But either way I done well on both just have to set up a budget and slowly work on it.

No stick shift? Not a muscle bike

[@sting64az]

True not a muscle bike nor a real Schwinn as I not into Pacific Cycles bikes but what triggered me was the front wheel part a well known name "Sturmey Archer" drum brake. These bikes when came out in 2020 were $700 bikes online and later Amazon. Not worth that even half or free lol. But got this one for $200 new just used on some photo shoot 30 miles from me and stored away. It rides nice and just a cruiser ride bike nothing special as it is made horrible but it is what it is. One can buy these now online for $500 lol.

Orange?! Even Schwinn wants to be a Flying Merkel...

[@sting64az]

That is Pacific Cycles for you owners of the Schwinn name nothing more than that. Schwinn been gone since 1991 and thereafter owned by Schwinn Cycling and Fitness till 2001 then the end of the era. Today it is what it is.

That orange is awful , way to brite

[@sting64az]

The color even back to the 1998 re-issues were not correct colors as they were back in the days. Schwinn Cycling and Fitness brought these back Krate coasters since 1972 last time they were out. The frames on the 1998 were spot on just not the paint color among other details of the bike. These 2020 are Pacific Cycles creations which all of their Stingrays when they took over in 2001 are horrible. I only bought this as it was cheap $200 an offer, I message the local seller and he accepted it. I only like the Sturmey Archer front drum brake and this bike was only used as a prop at some local fashion event and then stored for a few years in a warehouse.
