1971 Schwinn Sting-Ray Grey Ghost Krate

(Click for full photo)

1971 Schwinn Sting-Ray Grey Ghost Krate I wanted to post a picture of my 1971 Grey Ghost Krate. This bike was a Christmas present Dec 1971 and I have had this bike in my possession ever since. I have many favorite riding memories and truly enjoyed the Schwinn series of bikes growing up. I restored this bike several years after it was sitting for almost 20 years. I thoroughly cleaned the bike and did not touch the paint, which still has a well aged patina. All parts are original.
