1973 Schwinn Sunset Orange krate - original seat - original
chrome -original paint with touchups rare only made for 6 months of that
year
Up for
sale is rear June 1973 sunset orange disc brake krate bike. The main component
on this bike has been checked for originality. Pete
Aronson's at Hyper-Formance confirmed the bike seat being original seat
which I put away for safe keeping the bike is currently fitted with a Pete repo seat, The old original USA made tires have some
cracking on the side walls I had replaced them with new repo tires but keep the original tires to be sold with
the bike. The only added accessory to the bike is a Deluxe Speedo + 16” drive cable restored by Andy Green. This 73 Sunset orange bike is very
difficult to find with all original components intact and was a lucky find at the time I was looking to buy Krate bike. Note all cables
are Schwinn replacements.
The bike also
has an original Schwinn Dealership decal indicates the bike was purchase at ( Barber's Schwinn cyclery 2133 First St
Livermore California). A City of Livermore Bicycle License Registration Tag
No.15514 is also located in the bike frame.
