The Aerocycle featured a streamlined tank with an aviation theme to evoke the latest technological marvels. In 1934 Schwinn took bicycle design to a whole new level with the introduction of the Aerocycle. apart from other bicycle manufacturers through innovation beginning in 1933 with the introduction of the balloon tire bicycle. I suspect the bikes were put in the attic and forgotten as several owners lived in the house prior to my daughter purchasing it.ĭoes anyone know the year of manufacture? Maybe my information will help complete your serial number information.Frank Schwinn set Arnold, Schwinn & Co. That dates them to the early to mid 70's. The house was built in 1966 and the bikes were put in the attic of the garage probably from to late 70's. The bikes are not perfect but were a very easy restoration- a couple of hours each. The tubes do leak and I need to replace them. I carefully took each bike apart and cleaned all parts re-gresed the bearings etc. There is some patina from previous use- wear spots, scrapes but very minimal. Both bikes have original paint, chrome is very good, seats etc. My daughter bought a house and when I went to put in more insulation in the garage attic, I discovered two Murray bikes- one a man's (boy's) and one a woman's (girl's). Two Murray Lemans - one women's and one man's The first is my Spaceliner Klunker bike that originally had the 7 shaped tank, I have another but it's buried under a bunch of other stuff to look at it, I lost the paper that had the serial number so I will have to look later for it but it was the first tank design. I also think that in the 90's atleast the last two numbers 94 on the sticker at the bottom bracket is the year which is also the last two numbers on the Wald stem are also 94 so if it's true then those that find a Murray that you think is from the 90's you should check those areas for the year and the last two on my Murray Santa Cruz bottom bracket sticker is 96 so it maybe 1996. I think I have atleast figured out the 80's & 90's Murray bikes atleast if you still have the stickers on them, I know my 86 monterey is from 1986 since they put the year on the headbadge but it has weird different set of numbers on the headtube & other places MO6 005020 on the right side headtube, on the left N7753915, seatube has a 1 on the right and under the bottom bracket has 1R then a G further away from those two.
