Book Description
The 100-year history of Schwinn, the best-known name in American bicycling. German immigrant Ignaz Schwinn launched the company that bears his name in 1895 and set the bicycling standard in the U.S. for decades. Lavishly illustrated with original archival material, much of it from Chicagos Bicycle Museum of America, and specially commissioned photography. Covers Schwinns technical developments, racing history, significant models like the Black Phantom, Varsity, Paramount, Fastback, and many more. Also discusses Schwinns short-lived foray into motorcycle manufacturing. (Previous ISBN: 0-7603-0127-1.)
