  • All original 1972 Schwinn Pea Picker with rear disc brake after cleaning, waxing, and lubricating was done on Memorial day 2017. I really enjoyed taking it for a ride to test the shifting, spring fork and seat shocks and brakes and the bike operated smoothly with plenty of people asking questions about it. It rode extremely smooth. Love all the accessories it came with as well, and both front and rear generator lights work too. It took many hours to make the bike look like this so be sure and see the before video to see how crusty it looked when we got it.
    Thanks for watching and be sure to check out my other classic bike videos.

    It's pretty unreal how Schwinn bikes clean up, I've seen some pretty ratty ones that I've been able to bring back. The most impressive part to me is how good the chrome is, just goes to show ya the difference between a bike made in the USA versus somewhere else.

    I'm wondering if this was the bike I sat on in a bike shop a a kid. I'm thinking it was a 3-speed, but I remember it was green, had a stick shift, and was a Schwinn. Oh, I wanted it, but it was too big(I had trouble reaching the pedals. Maybe the seat was too high), and maybe too expensive. Man, was it COOL.

    I have and had earlier models both black my would have been a 67-68 with the skinny tires/rims my father sold my first one when I was in the Navy and my 68 CT-90 trail 90 step-thru (registration was down to $7.00 year)
    I never cared for the skinny 20” tires.
    Is there a way to convert or acquire OEM size tires reasonably?

    Excellent I'm trying to find out if someone else has a bike that I saw Back in 1971 or 72 maybe 73 it was a Schwinn Stingray on the frame double shifter I think it was 5-speed and then the other shifter was either a park and a drive right next to it I thought that was so cool man I don't know if that was a aftermarket accessories or did Schwinn actually have a double shifter Schwinn Stingray or Pea Picker I don't know I believe I was either 9 or 10 years old so if anyone seen something like that be nice to see one of those.

    Back in the day when this was AMERICA we used to take them generators off they were troublesome and problematic in general and they would wear out a tire faster than you would believe we had our pretty bikes with all the accessories and then our old bikes we would trim them down and those was our Wheelie poppers and jump bikes and all around trail bikes ! You see kids I grew up in the country you may have heard of it....... AMERICA! Yes indeed I reckon I'm going to restore that old Schwinn stingray I got out there one more time and make me a trail riding wheelie popper jump bike and fly through the air one more time! Hahaha
