Schwinn Krate shifter bikes

Good eye @anlauto   That guy collects those Swing Bikes.  I think he has 20 of them now.   

Here's one I customized for the swap meet.

How cool is that! I've never seen one before!

I had a blue "STINGRAY" which was before the krate series. Basic difference was NO springer. Got stolen... still pisses me off!

These bikes are a blast to right especially after a nice steak dinner and a few cocktails....Here's Cody and his bike gang.!!!

@73Cudamann  Boy oh boy I'm getting excited about the Portland Swap Meet now!

   ON my birthday,

     Broke the frame jumping garbage cans a few year after this, oh ya broke my arm too.
My mom said I would feel that when I got older. Boy was she right!!

[Cuda Cody]

@philze   that is a super cool photo!!!   Do you still have the bike?  Probably not after you broke the frame, but holy smokes that is a cool bike.    

[philze]

     
   No, bikes long gone. I did have a Mattel Varoom motor on it on that faithfull  day

[Cuda Cody]

Just love that photo.  You can see how happy you are with your bike.

I had one of these in the late 70's. Always thought about buying another one if I ever found one reasonably priced....Not a lot around...

[Cuda Cody]

 That's a rad bike!     Had to go see if there was any for sale...      BAM!  302130443165  I've paid less for cars!     That is one rare bike!

[anlauto]

Yup.....Just one of those things....   I had so many cool bikes when I was a kid.....I used to race BMX as well, so there are a lots of bikes I should have kept.....

One day I'll tell the weird story about the yellow CCM I have now....
