1979 Schwinn Sting
1979 Schwinn Sting
Another one of my Sting projects, 1979 Sky Blue "The Sting" BMX. For some reason Schwinn never offered the Stings as complete bikes with the Sky Blue frame so I always thought it would be cool to build one the way Schwinn would have. I'm in need of a few more NOS parts but it's getting closer. I'm mostly in need of a mint pair of solid blue Ukai rims and rear sunshine flip flop hub.
Update, this Sting frame that was restored has know been replaced on this bike with a mint NOS original paint frame. I will probably use this frame for a custom non stock build. I'm thinking black tuff wheels.
