• Ed H’s 1986 Schwinn Sprint

    Ed H, the apparent king of backsidagarägdorotypes, has another sweet one to share. Pictured is his 1986 Schwinn Sprint; purchased for the poetic sum of $9.19.

    Not much to say about this one, 1986 Schwinn Sprint purchased for under $10. It is all original and clean, the seat is deformed slightly which seems to indicate it spent most of its life hanging in a garage. It rides real nice; it is a little small for me and being a woman frame not really what I wanted for myself. But the wife doesn’t care for it and it is too large for my 8 year old daughter to ride. I am considering using the parts on another project, but I am having a difficult time in bringing myself to tear this well preserved bike apart. Maybe it will have to hang in my garage while my daughter grows into it.

    Thanks again Ed

      I`m just curious does one of the numbers on the rear drop-out start with a “G” ?

      Wow, I just bought this exact same bike today! I don’t know much about bikes, but I understand this is a lower model Schwinn(giant) of this year. Wish I’d found it for $9.19!
