1940 SCHWINN NEW WORLD SINGLE-SPEED BICYCLE:
$350.00
For 41 years, from 1938 to 1978, the Schwinn Bicycle Company of Chicago offered a unique but little-known line of specially constructed lightweight bicycles: The fillet-brazed chrome-molybdenum models, which were tucked into Schwinn\'s model lineup between the lugged Paramount and flash-welded models like the Varsity and Continental.In 1938, most likely in response to European competition, Arnold, Schwinn & Co. reintroduced fine, lightweight adult bicycles to its product line. The three new models were the Paramount, the Superior, and the New World.This New World Schwinn is from 1940 and is in excellent shape. The spokes have been replaced and it has a newer chain - otherwise completely original. The leather Messenger seat is quite worn but still useable.
