Description

Here is one of my absolute FAVORITE bikes we have found this year!

Here is an original VINTAGE (I believe Jan 17th 1949 The serial number is F006029 and is stamped on the bottom of the cranks housing) men\'s HENDERSON BADGED SCHWINN HORNET STRAIGHTBAR beach cruiser bicycle with 26\" wheels. It is in a gorgeous looking maroon and white 2-tone colored paint. If you like GORGEOUS restored original bikes, this may be a great bike for you. To me, this bike is absolutely AMAZING and they almost never come along like this! With the insanely high price of gas (and the economy being bad) now is the time to ride a cool vintage bike!

*This bike has a cool mens straight bar Panther cruiser style frame with shiny paint and decals, cool BRASS Henderson Chicago head badge, cool chrome truss rod forks, frame mounted straight bar TANK with horn inside, (untested) DELUXE feather \"whizzer\" style Hornet chainguard, super cool cruiser style seat, (has a small cut) \"AS\" (Arnold Schwinn) chrome seat post bolt, wide cruiser handlebars, Schwinn script hand grips, full fenders, deluxe sprocket, \"dogleg\" cranks, skiptooth chain, fender mounted Delta Rocket Ray headlight, (untested) deluxe sprocket, cool pedals, (I was told NOS) 9 hole rear carrier RACK, chrome kickstand, and more!

*This bike is amazing! I have a thing for Henderson and Excelsior bicycles. They rarely come up and I hope you LOVE IT!

*The tires are 26x2.125\". They are Schwinn TYPHOON CORD tires and do hold air. The bike has factory painted and pinstriped Schwinn S-2 rims front and rear with a New Departure rear hub. The S-2 rims are decent looking and appear to be unrestored originals. They do have chips but are quite nice compared to most!

*FOOD FOR THOUGHT! If you wanted a nice restored bike like this, you would have to first buy the bike, then search for any missing or unrepairable parts. By the time you pay for paint, bodywork, chroming, seat covering, etc etc etc, you would have a couple thousand dollars involved. NOT TO MENTION all the time you would have to invest. Enjoy this one right away and save all that effort, time, and money!

*The bike is an original SINGLE SPEED with coaster brakes. (pedal slightly backwards to stop the bike)

*DIMENSIONS The stand over height is approx 30 3/4\". The distance from the floor to the top of the seat post clamp is approx 28 1/2\". The distance from the center of the crank to the top of the seat post clamp is approx 18 1/2\". The center of the handlebar stem to the center of the seat post is approx 22\". The bike will accommodate most any rider comfortably. The seat height is easy to adjust.

*NOTED FLAWS It is not 100% flawless but is relatively nice considering its age. The paint is new and looks awesome but it does have chips here and there from storage. The chrome is restored and bright and shiny! (see pics) The previous owner spent a ton of $ on having the chrome restored. Both wheels have a slight wobble when you spin them. The tank has some small dings if you look at it just right in the light. (nothing serious but I like to be honest) Overall, this is one of the coolest bikes you could ask for! A rare bike in a rare color... I truly hope you can appreciate this one for what it is. This is a much harder bike to find than a Black Phantom or a Krate bike. I took lots of pics, I have nothing to hide. If you click on any of the pics they get very large to show lots of detail. Please take a look at all pics for exact condition and email with any questions before you offer.

*IF you want this shipped in 2 boxes, we can do so bubblewrapped for $129.95 anywhere in the lower 48 US States. JUST LET ME KNOW BEFORE YOU PAY AND I CAN ADJUST THE INVOICE NO CHARGE local pickup is always an option.

*This appears to be a fairly nice original unmolested bicycle unless otherwise noted. A great bike to ride on relaxing days through the park or to the beach. Also would be a nice item to display in a shop, restaurant, rec room, sports bar, etc. Stand out from the crowd and be the envy of people who see you riding by. People will enjoy seeing you on your vintage bike! A great classic bike at a great price

*Why not ride a bike? You will live longer, feel better, and save $$$ vs of the insanely high cost of gasoline. If you are looking for a fun bike to ride and enjoy this may be it! A nice bike to cruise the beach or your local park! Priced way less than a dime store bike that wont be around 5 years from now, much less 30+ years like this one! Please give this bike a good home and DON\'T MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY! Classic bikes are very cool because not everyone on the block has one! People love to see and talk about and ride these classic bikes! They are more popular now than ever before!

*This may be a great Birthday or other special holiday gift for someone! It is never too soon to think ahead and get someone something they may really like!! This starts reasonably with ABSOLUTELY so offer early and don\'t miss out! These are getting to be hard to find in any condition and to my knowledge, have not been reproduced.

*Sold as is simply because it is used. I try my very best to describe as accurately as possible and disclose anything I am aware of about the bike. PLEASE NOTE that many of the bikes I list have listed have been in long term storage and have not been regularly ridden in a while.(not a bad thing) They may need standard tuning, greasing, may have old tires, surface rust etc. I try to be as honest as possible and never want to disappoint anyone. If you have any questions regarding any specific things concerning the bike, please feel feel to ASK via emali before you offer. Keep in mind you are offerding on a 30+ year old bike that is not a brand new bicycle so it may need minor tuning, cables or cable adjustment, if tires are original, they may or may not have sidewall cracks, etc. I try to be as honest as I can and disclose anything I know about the bike. I want you to be happy with your new vintage purchase but please understand the bike may need some tlc to be road ready.

*By offerding please understand that you are purchasing a used bicycle that may or may not need tlc. If I notice an issue, I always try to note it in the sale listing. I want you to be excited about your new bike and hope you really enjoy your new vintage ride for years to come. Be sure to check out all pics and email with any questions you may have before you offer regarding condition, mechanical items, etc.

*NOTE REGARDING SHIPPING YOUR BIKE Your bike will be partially disassembled and shipped to you in a factory bicycle box. We try our best to package the bicycles carefully to avoid any unnecessary damage caused in transit however, scratches etc are possible to happen in transit which we have no control over once shipped. We try to package well so the bike arrives to you in the same condition as it left us.

*SHIPPING COSTS: Fed Ex, USPS, as well as UPS have recently raised their shipping rates due to the higher cost of fuel. Sorry for the slight increase in shipping costs.

*PLEASE NOTE, I WILL NO LONGER BE SHIPPING FULL SIZE BIKES OUTSIDE OF THE USA. This is due to the high cost of shipping and customs. If you are anywhere outside the lower 48 States including Alaska, Hawaii, or Puerto Rico contact me before you offer as shipping will cost more. Fed Ex just increased the rates. I can ship to AK, HI, or PR for approx $159.95. This is a 10+ day service and includes packing. This i the best deal I can get to ship to these locations. Please do not offer if this is unacceptable. I always try to keep things as reasonable as I can. If you have a friend or family member in the lower 48 states, I can ship to them for the amount stated in the listing. THANK YOU!


*I have lots of other rare bicycles, bike parts and bike accessories, as well as vintage car parts and unique items on sale this week! Check them out! Combine items to save yourself $$$ on shipping! Email with any questions you may have.
