Welcome to our Inaugural “Antique of the Week” presented by our in-house history buff @jessebillypilgrim :
Featuring the ~ 1986 Schwinn Freeform Z ~
Schwinn was never the biggest name in the BMX world, but this decked out freestyle has all of the bells and whistles.
To quote the original owners manual:
“The '86 Predator Freestyle bikes are the most advanced dancing machines we've ever designed. The Predator Free Form, with its state-of-the-art-free-style componentry, including the all new ACS Rotor Stem mechanism that allows you to endlessly rotate the handlebars 360 degrees.”
BMX Plus Magazine wrote:
“The best production freestyle we've ever set our buns on."
The seat is actually VERY hard plastic, so it not very comfy on the buns, but we are very exited to have this time capsule of a “dancing machine” at PGH.

Schwinn wasn't the biggest name once the BMX world caught on fire! But if it wasn't for the Schwinn Sting-Ray, and a bunch of us kids back in Southern California in the 70's, the BMX world may have not been the same!
