.Ahhhhh, I'll bet you where expecting a Diamond Frame
10 Speed..well

This is my newest and coolest Purchase.
It rides nice and is Freshly Tuned up,
but it does need some TLC.
The Headbadge is gone and all I know is that it might have been
a Bike Made for Sears.
Year :?:
Model :?:

But it is Awesome,
and lets just say...the Price was right.
I may do a Resto on this one,
any info on this one would be great guys,

Thanks,
Enjoy

The BEAFY Dual Brakes..

I am guessing some kind of Spyder. I saw one of those come up once on CL. Bought the Grey Ghost instead from the guy and should of bought the Spyder too.

The 10 speed set up is cool as are the double bars with beefy brakes.
 
Oh Yeah!

That is a Sears 10 SPeed Spyder. Kinda Rare too. Most of the ten speed ones I see are purple. I have a complete NOS 10 speed shifter system for one of these, mmmmmmmmmmmm Good! I also have the correct front 24" wheel as well as a matching pair or 24 inch Sears redline slick and brick tires OR you can go totally old scool with a pair of Ted Williams pinner white wall tires (still in the wrapper!) 24 x 1.75. Those bars were optional, but they are uncomfortable for any long distance ride. The seat looks wrong too, but it may be a later model Spyder seat from a 20 inch bike - not sure from the pic.

Looks like you have most of the stuff for it. Let me know if you looking for parts or looking to unload it!

See my post above

I was typing while you guys were chatting, LOL

Awesome Score! The more I look at it the more I like it. How fast does it go?
 
MOD

MOD, man...all I can say is it's very MOD, right Groovy. :wink:

Sears Spyder...maaaaaaybe.

Picture from NEMBM of Sears 10 sp Spyder.:

From NEMBM: "Sears 10 sp Spyder. 24" redline tires and cool purple paint did not keep this from being a Manta Ray type failure. These are not sought after now so even this C9 example has little value."

Dohhhhhhhhhhhhh what does he know! he has too many $5K Schwinn Krates to know what 'VALUE' really means :wink: :wink: :wink:

Your frame is quite diffrent than one pictured (which is Schwinn knockoffish)...but never the less, very MOD. Peace...


P.S.

But this one (from U.K. site) does have the 'unique' frame :eek: :

And again with the Schwinn knockoffish frame:

NOTE: the graphics on this (20/20 model) one are same as your (faded) ones and same color...

Must be diffrent year models, eh? or or or yours is the 'export' model :mrgreen:

O.K. Trust Flea-bay to have the 'goods'

Yes, different years, but...

But, here is the kicker, Have a look at my 24" Sears Spaceliner/SpaceRay frame! Similarity??? I think so! Interchangeable, mmm I bet. Kev, all you need is a tank and you are good to go! The only Sears SpaceRay 10 Speed!

Does it have a rear disk or ? what's up with the rear brakes?
