This is a 1970s era bicycle that has been parked in a backyard shed for years. I think it is just a mass discounter variation of the Schwinn bikes of that time, because I cannot find any markings on it.
My son had liked its looks, and wanted to hang on to it, but he got too tall for it, and would be able to get any use out of it, especially with those non-standard handlebars. I was just thinking of scrapping or giving it away to free up the space just because it does not fit any of us. The metal on the underside of the seat has rusted away, so it will need a new seat.
Can anyone identify it? A google image search did not turn up anything. Or, if you have some ideas on how to potentially use it, please pass those along.
Thanks
