Wow! That's a nice one. That's the earliest use of the Wald "nutcracker" neck I've seen on a Schwinn. The '40 and '41 bikes always have them but this is the first one I've seen on a bike that old. Gary

Just put a word out to all the (hoarders,collectors, scrap yards and bike shops that your looking for old bikes. and put an ad on Craigslist.

Nick,

Noticed the head badge may be a Mead Cycle Co. "Ranger"

How and whats the history or background with Schwinn and Mead Cycle Co.? Did Mead build for Schwinn or Schwinn for Mead here on this bike?? or???

Beautiful bike. Most amazing condition. Keep bringing them.

Thanks
Robbie

Mead was its own company in the teens and 20s but later in the years they merged with Schwinn and for a short time Schwinn made mead badged Schwinns like this one. IMO its the best of both worlds 8) 8)
