Cool little ride here

I remember riding one of those as a kid. I remember crashing it too...that rear steering is a little squirrely downhill.

It's a dark pic but I think I see a gusset at the seat tube so I'll say Electra.

I agree, Electra

MBBO Material...Not too bad a price for a complete original bike...maybe.

This is a 1970's Ross Apollo 5 speed muscle bike in black, with yellow highlights. This has the lever shifter mounted to the stem, so it's a 'later' bike. This bike is all original except for the kickstand has been replaced. The tires hold air, there are no missing or bent spokes, rims are nice and clean. Brakes work, and all 5 speeds work fine. This has Shimano components, and the Eagle II rear derailleur. This bike has been hanging in my garage for 20 years....has some bumps and bruises, but no cracked welds, or other repairs. The seat has a few small tears as shown in the photos. Please look over the photos carefully, as i am not trying to hide anything.... This bike replaced a Raleigh Chopper I had when i was a teenager back in the 70's... Some of these bikes are going for big bucks when restored, this one has not been restored....and it is a 5-speed, not a 'Racer' single speed or '3-speed'..... Come take a look and be instantly transported back to when 'style' was important in bike design!!!

I'm trying to figure out where the tank is that I'm not seeing. and the springer.....or is it a springer tank and that's why we can't see it?

I took another look and I saw springs under the saddle,so there's the springer. I think the tank is reference to the fact that old bikes are heavy.

It's L.A. man,traffic is a nightmare and public transit is horrible everywhere.

 

[DJ Bill]

So let's ride through it with an infant on our handlebars?

I was thinkin' the rug rat musta grew up to be an Evil Kneivel type...or he never will ride a bicycle ever again.
