This item was purchased in 1996 in Los Angeles from a local, old SCHWINN collector's bike shop. There are few shops in the United States that handle vintage bicycle parts. This is a limited edition item sold at some old-established cycle shops in California. It is not available anywhere else in the United States. It is in a shiny condition, plated on iron like brass. How about it, SCHWINN collectors? #Schwinn #Schwinn #SCHWINN #STINGRAY #KRATE #OldBike #DeadStock #Vintage #Vintage #USA #BICYCLE #BIKE #BeachCruiser #LowRider #Lowrider #BMX #SUPREME #XLARGE #VANS #NIKE
