I want to learn more about 24" muscle bike. How many models factories made 24"?

My guess would be
24" schwinn manta ray
24" sears spyder 5 speeds and 10 speeds
24" Murray eliminator 3 speeds and 5 speeds

Feel free to add nonfactories 24" muscle bikes. Just make sure it say customized or nonfacotry. :wink:

What else did I missed?

This is very cool bike. I was wondering what does make bike to be 24"? By wheel size or the frame size? For example is Murray eliminator mark 4 frame is same size as 20" eliminator, screamers, wild one etc... frames?
 
Would love to see some pics, I have a 24" Schwinn that I want to make into a muscle bike. Just not sure what it would look like.
 
I've recently put together a 24" Schwinn Typhoon with 16" handlebars, 24 X 2.125 Jerald Sulky slick in rear, 24 X 1.75 brick tread in front, banana seat, Bendix Red Band coaster brake hub on a recent Huffy rim. I used a crank from a 26" bike and used a front fork from a 27" Schwinn Collegiate. Just waiting on paint and a little more padding in the seat. Gel padding would be nice if I could find it. Good fitting bike for me - I'm 5' 7".

Huffy made at least one. I had a 24"Huffy muscle bike when I was about 10 or so. Pretty much a Manta Ray look alike Had the skinny tires, slick in the rear, road tread up front. Three speed stick shift in a "console" type housing that mounted in between the twin top bars of the frame.Calipers front and rear,wide/flattish persons solo polo seat. Also had a chainguard that resembled a motorcycle muffler/pipe.My Pop bought it for me new @ OSH in Campbell CA.for Christmas that year.Loved the bike, all pretty yellowish/greenish candy color, hated the name on the chainguard! "Gypsy Invader" LOL :oops: I actually saw one like it only a five speed, sold on E-pay about five years ago.Auction closed at 350 samolians! :mrgreen:
