1969 Schwinn Sting-Ray Apple Krate Bicycle

This classic 1969 Schwinn Sting-Ray Apple Krate Bicycle, manufactured in the United States, is a distinctive find from the early era of BMX bikes. Its fillet-brazed cantilever frame and red glitter banana seat give it a bold, retro appearance, while the spring-loaded sissy bar shocks add a touch of comfort to its ride. This bike stands out with its automotive-style Stik-Shift for operating the five-speed rear derailleur, and its chrome wheels—16-inch at the front and 20-inch at the rear—instantly catch the eye. Currently listed in Seekonk, Massachusetts, this vintage cycle is a rare treat for enthusiasts of classic American cycling history.
