Color: Green
Condition: Cond 7
Description: What a cool ride! I've been looking for one for 2 years and finally picked up this green chainguard model 2 weeks ago. The wheels,r. fender, bars, and guard were rusty, reflectors, brakes, and F fender missing, and everything needed a good cleaning. A quick look through my parts bin turned up an identical set of cateye reflectors, a nearly identical wheelset and handlebar, and some fenders that worked with a little tweaking. I have really enjoyed riding this one and hope to find another one soon. JOEL.

Serial #: A00350
Color: Was Blue -- now Silver/Yellow
Condition: Cond 7
Description: This Bike came to England in the early eighties courtesy of a local businessman who intended to import and distribute the novel bicycle. English trading standards declared these bikes illegal to ride on the public highway with the frame in the swing condition this put paid to this venture. The bike was then given to a friend, local builder Gerald Parsonage who's young family had several years of fun before retiring the bike to the scrap heap. Here it lay at rest until June 2000 when we rescued it and gave it a new lease of life giving it an eighties touch of index gears and a paint job. Only later when having a browse on the old web did we realise these bikes had such a following. Luckily we have retained all the original wheels, chainguard, fenders etc. if ever we want to restore to original condition.

Description: The orange bike I got from a friend,It was only a frame,I repainted it with the original color. The rest I tried to match as close as posible.THe blue bike I bought on ebay. The yellow joyride swinger ser.#NX9506736 I found in a bike shop close to home. The colorful swing bike is called a super trick cycle. I recently bought that new in the box. That's a bit more tricky to ride unless you are use to riding a unicycle. I now have enough swing bikes so the whole family can ride,for fun or parades. Best of luck and swing safely.
