| Hi I'm new here. My father's cleaning house that has been in the family since 1936. I acquired a blue Galaxy Flyer with chrome fenders, 1 speed w/back pedal brake, woman's bicycle model MOM2027A17. I looked all over for a serial number with no luck. Can somebody tell me who, where and about when this could have been made? Many thanks, Gail by: 24.177.141.193 |
| Hey Vin, The Antiques Roadshow FYI was on last night. You looked good on TV (maybe taller??). Nice job. Maybe this will give the hobby a much needed boost. by: 138.26.156.139 |
| After much waiting, the local PBS station aired the show. Excellent, but not nearly long enough. Hope they'll give you some more time. by: 69.148.135.39 |
| ok, I have one for you. can anyone identify the bike I just bought? I got it on ebay. It was labeled as a Schwinn but is not a Schwinn. it has what appears to be a Shelby springer, but the frame is a mystery to me. is it also a shelby? look at the area where the chain stays meet the bottom bracket. looks like the old monarks, but it is a cantilever. please help if you can. Here is the address: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6548234241 thanx, Scott by: 71.105.150.80 |
| well I just heard from the guy on this bike he says he doesn't have it any more. says someone climbed over his fence and took it. its not even a complete bike!!! its just a cruddy looking frame and fork. I think he sold it before and forgot when he relisted his bikes. he has 40 bikes or so and some are mis-labeled and stuff. I dont think he's being dishonest or anything just doing too many auctions at once. I'm very frustrated at not getting it but oh well I guess. by: 71.105.150.80 |
| My girlfriend turned me on to vintige bikes and I just bought our first one at a garage sale.I bought it for 3 bucks. It is in poor shape and has to be completley gone through, thats ok I like stuff like that. My question is I don't know what kind of bike it is on the frame it says Norwood and the seat says in the vinal messenger. I will have to send out to crome dip all the baskets, handle bars, and crank shafts to the pedals. Should I restore the rims or replace them with somthing off a newer bike. Don't know if the bike is worth anything even if restored but if it is I would have the orig. redone. The bike looks like a circa 1960 evans cutlass of evans bike co. I seen one like it o ebay it looked identical but don't know it other bikes were copied. Thanks for any help. Eric by: 205.188.117.5 |

| Are you sure your bike is a Schwinn? It doesn't look like any Schwinn serial number I've ever seen before. by: 165.234.9.107 |
| You have one too many numbers for a Schwinn serial #. by: 199.179.238.68 |
