“pea picker”
This is the other Krate bike I still own.
An (HF) = Aug. 1970 “PEA PICKER”.
At one time 25+ years ago I had all the Krate bikes, but have reduced that down to the above Sunset Orange and this Pea.
This Krate is also 100% factory Original including the Campus Green paint and it’s born with dated tires.
I found this bike hanging in an old Schwinn dealer in San Francisco covered in dust.
It took a few years before they would sell it to me, but it was worth it.
The paint on this bike shows a slight marble which is beautiful, that only comes with age.
A few options such as the speedometer and tail light add to the classic look of the Krates.
My taste for the Stingrays moved toward the early (63-66) models after I sold off the other Krates.
