My latest addition
3
About to pick this up if the guy replies back to me.
Here's the info he wrote about it:
1971 Coal Krate very, very nice bike. Date code (AG) January 71, coaster frame, I built this bike about seven years ago. It's never been riden just on display. Professionally painted black, chainguard painted & screened by Pete at Hyperformance. Seat is a charcoal grey glitter Persons seat. Springer, rear shock sissy bar, fenders, handle bars, pedals & tires are all from the 1998 Schwinn Krate reproductions which are the better quality repos, better then the junk made now, every other part is original era Schwinn. Rear rim is a beautiful side stamped S-2 respoked to a rechromed 1970 hearing bone hub, very nice!!! Front is a side stamped Schwinn 16 inch coaster S-7. Why buy one of the Taiwan krates when you can have a 71 Schwinn Krate. $430 plus shipping. Cost me alot more then that to build back then.
I've been wanting one ever since I saw one. The ficticious "Coal Krate" :thumbsup:

21 bikes total before I add the Coal Picker. My ex used to tell me that if we were to get married I can only have 1 bike :twak: That's partly why she's an EX :roflmao: She used to think my love of lowrider bikes was "just a phase" :uh:
Most of the parts were off of a 1998 repro Orange Krate. That crown was a repro one I think. Here's a closeup of it
List all the bikes you got
