1953 Schwinn Starlet

[Schweetcruisers]

I have been chasing this particular bike for about 6 years and and have been unsuccesful in getting the owner to release it. I had started to refer to it as a unicorn! Finally yesterday I got it, I had to trade a pre-war boys Shelby to get it but its mine. And for thoses who question my rationing, I own another Shelby Just like the one I traded but it has a Tank and New Departure 2 Speed. Now you may be saying so what a Schwinn Starlet, but how may have you seen in White and blue, almost all were Pink, some were green and purple and the rarest is the Cloud White and Powder Blue. This thing is all complete with the Chrome lined Rocket Ray and the Key to the Cyclelock. Woooohooo!


The Shelby I traded

Nice Bike. I had one like it a while back.

Yours is rarer than most since it has the locking blade fork as well as the less common paint scheme.
