Balloon Tire Lady's Bikes - Lady's Cruiser Bikes


Vintage and Antique Cruiser bikes (a.k.a. fat tire, balloon tire, cruisers, heavyweights, cruizers)

My stock changes faster than what I can keep up with on the website, however, here are just some of the bikes I have ready for you!  Prestigious bicycles by Schwinn, J.C. Higgins, Columbia, Hawthorne, Dayton, Huffman, Elgin, Shelby, Western Flyer, and Monark bikes that turn heads wherever you go!  I also have Models that were only available in catalogs, such as the Spiegel Airman!.


Hiawatha Meteor Chief
Hiawatha Meteor Chief - This bike is a great value.  It includes a front chrome rack and a rear carrier.  It has a "Star of Texas" chain ring and a very classy Shelby Chainguard (it's a Shelby made bike).  The chrome rims will polish up nicely.  It also features some very nice peaked chrome fenders, that you just don't see anymore.

The tank is in great shape.  The seat is torn on the top, but ti's the one that came with it...

26 x 2.125" tires


1947 JC Higgins
1947 JC Higgins 4 Star - This is an Elgin built bicycle with the prewar skirt guards, truss rods, and one inch pitch diamond chain.  This is truly a relic of the prewar style of bicycles. It has a delta horn unit built into the tank.  Check out the new whitewall tires.

26 x 2.125" tires

1948 JC Higgins 4 Star
1948 JC Higgins 4 Starthis is an excellent riding bike.  You can notice some of the postwar changes that the manufacturers started making, now that they had used up much of the prewar parts.

I features a tank and the new teardrop style rear rack.  It rides like a dream!

26 x 2.125" tires

Monark Rocket
Monark Rocket -this bike is in excellent condition.  A real head turner!  There is a little surface rust on the top of the fender where the fender light used to be, but that is easily overlooked - especially if you put a fender light on it (I have several in stock).

It has truss rods, to help smooth out the nasty bumps in the road.

26 x 2.125" tires
Hawthorne ladies
Hawthorne
Hawthorne - This is definitely a work in progress.  Overall, it's really straight and in great shape. It needs bars and a seat recovering.

26 x 2.125" tires
