I have this 1980 Schwinn Stringray II that I’m not sure what to do with. It’s a solid bike, and my kids (and myself at times) ride it. I’ve had it for years, and paid around $20 for it, but I don’t know what I should do with it. Is it worth finding original parts and refurbishing it, or should I...

Yep. Also Wald fenders, Union pedals, Bendix 70 rear hub and “Vista Scorpion” Goodyear tires from 1969 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That old Schwinn badge someone put on it is probably worth more than the whole bike lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

After tons of research and asking on other forums I came up with it being a Stelber-Iverson/Ross mashup branded as a Vista. Pretty weird and a cheaper hardware store bike. But I’ll keep it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m hoping someone can tell me a little more about this middleweight I picked up yesterday for $50. I was told it was from the 60s. Entered the serial number in a Schwinn bike page and it came up as being manufactured in 1957. Markings on the Wald fenders, AS & Co head badge, and wheels place it...

Pretty basic but it gets me to the store and back ;)

Thanks. Could be...i dunno. Its not a great picture and it just looks like an average old generic BMX to me. I'm really just reaching for straws here. But who knows, someone could say "hey I had one just like that...heres what it is"

My dad sent me this picture a while ago (yes thats me in the 1980s get up) and I wanted to put it on here in hopes of someone being able to ID it. I cant remember when I got it, but it belonged to one of my uncles back in the 70s or early 80s. My grandaddy fixed it up and gave it to me. I rode...

Hey everyone. I havnt been on here in a while...been really busy. Anyways, I picked up an old Schwinn "The Sting" BMX at a garage sale this weekend for 5 bucks. I thought I was just getting a parts bike, but when I looked it over it was in pretty good shape, so I decided to keep it as is. I took...

Thats awesome man. I love the head. Where'd you get it? I have a 1980 Stingray 2 that i need to do something to. I think a springer fork would be a great start

Hey man its nice to have a buddy who works at the landfill :mrgreen:

Well i was thinkin i'd just bend that wheel back straight, pop some rubber on it and go :lol: Seriously though it definately needs some TLC. How do you like that "shim" for the handlebars??

Thats cool man. You'd definately turn some heads with that. It looks like little guy likes it too.

Nice man...i've got one very similar and about the same age. i love it. I got mine for free but hey $40 is still a good deal

Thanks man
