It's called a banana seat. It was the style back in my youth days. I grew up with those style bikes. That lemon bike made the whole video. Brought back many memories. Thanks for sharing...😃👍👌👊👊👊🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️

@TwoWheelCruise 3 года назад

Thanks! It was a nice surprise upstairs :)

@kevinjfeeney77 3 года назад

They're great for doing wheelies and carrying a passenger. I have a Lowrider with bent springer forks that have that banana seat style. Think I've also seen that style referred to as crate/krate bikes. A top tube shifted one is expensive.....2ndary market I have seen listed at $2,000+ (usd)

@jamesanderson3088 3 года назад

When I was a kid everybody wanted a Schwinn Stinger banana seat bike. They came in cool colors and there was even a 5 speed version with hand brakes and a stick shift. The long seat made it possible to pop cool wheelies. Let's go!

Bikes with the banana seat, as it came to be known, were first produced in 1963 by the Schwinn company. The Schwinn "Sting Ray" had the banana seat and high-rise handlebars giving it the look of a "chopper" motorcycle and was an instant hit for the company. The long, padded seat meant a more comfortable ride, and it could accommodate more than one rider.

@TwoWheelCruise 3 года назад

Thanks!

@radek5690 3 года назад

There was another version in the 70's, called the Crates. My friends had the "Apple Crate" and another had the "Lemon Crate", the difference was that the Crates were 5 speeds instead of single speed. Then you would put some playing cards and a clothes pin to simulate the motor sounds. Those were the days!

In Canada, bike shops usually only stock a few brands. Stock for new bikes and parts is also pretty limited these days after the COVID bike boom started this spring. It's interesting to see that most of the Japanese shops you've shown deal with such a variety in brands and price.

@classifiedinformation6353 3 года назад

In 1969, my parents bought me my first new bike. Up until this timely bicycles were very used hand-me-downs. My new bike was a Schwinn Apple-Crate. Full suspension and five speeds!. I was just 8 years old, so this was a big deal. The bike cost $90.00 and that was a very big deal. I wore it out and then I inherited my brother's Apple-Crate and wore it out. And, yes, I still have the Apple-Crate! Thanks for your entertaining videos. I can sense that you two enjoy the adventure of making them and I enjoy experiencing your adventure through the videos.

@TwoWheelCruise 3 года назад

@gammondog 3 года назад

15:20 That looks like the Sting Ray bikes of my childhood. Complete with “sissy bars” and “banana seat”. The banana seat is simply to look cool to a ten year old back in the sixties. I learned to ride a bike on a model just like that.

@brucesmith9144 3 года назад

What an absolutely cool shop. I could browse there for some time like a kid in a candy store. The Schwinn banana seat bikes were styled like chopper motorcycles. The sissy bars are like the ape hangers of a motorbike. But getting back to seat, in my youth we often would have a friend get on the back a ride off.

@NoZenith 3 года назад

That orange like Brompton is called Flame Lacquer. I used to do brazing when I was in college and I'm very fond of the Raw Lacquer because it shows the joints of the tubes (where they are brazed together). So, every Brompton comes with a powder coat (it's not really paint or lacquer or anything like anodizing). Some come with opaque pigments (typical red, blue, green etc) and some come with these translucent pigments. I did a lot of research myself as I'm looking to put an order in for one.

Feel like I owe it (and series creator Miyake Taishi) a debt of gratitude. Yes, the bike that catches main-character Kurata Ami's attention in the opening is a "Birdy" (at that time, known as a Riese und Muller BD-1), like the ones seen in this video. I'd love to give a Birdy a try!

That banana seat with the hi-rise handle bars, was a kid's dream bike for the latter day baby-boomer (during the 60' and early 70's). Mine had a 3-speed gear shifter with red pin-stripe side wall (knobby) tires and a high back bar so your passenger can rest and hold tight. I rode that bike a lot when I was a kid; it was my "rosebud" bike. Now, it's an endurance road bike.

I was eyeing this full-sized folding bike called the "change bike" a while ago. it seems quite practical to have a full-sized bike that can be folded not much bigger than the wheel itself, and the bike also not too expensive, it's like $1200ish on amazon.

Two Wheeler, loved the vid. How could you ever decide on just one bike, with so many to choose from?! I am a Stinray owner too. I bought mine brand new, in 1966, when I was 11. Still have it in my garage. On another note, u ever heard of "rail riding"? People rig bikes to ride on old abandoned railroad tracks. Just watched a vid of 4 old guys doing 250 mile through the countryside in South America. It was quite the scenic adventure. You ever thought about trying that out? Looks like a lot of work! :)
