SCHWINN DELUXE VINTAGE BIKE SPEEDOMETER HEAD HURET BICYCLE SPEEDO

Description

(This is a new auction, not a relisting!)
This is a very nice used example of a Schwinn Deluxe speedometer head,
one of the most elaborate speedometers that Huret ever made for Schwinn, in full working order and with its outer MPH scale stamped in chrome silver.
This has had a complete disassembly, overhaul, cleaning and lube. It has been polished, waxed and reassembled, and is back in full working order with a very good shine.
The speedometer head is 2 3/8" wide, 2¼" high and 1 5/8" deep. It has a polished chrome rim, glass face and chrome housing, with the inner (KmH) numbers in white and the outer (MPH) in chrome silver, on a glossy black dial with bright orange pointer coloring.
This is a relatively rare example of a dual-scale speedometer with no datestamp in the upper right corner of the back. It may have been one of the first dual-scale models assembled during the transition year of 1974, when Schwinn replaced the old 0-60 MPH model with this new 0-40 MPH dual-scale version, and Huret introduced datestamps on their components from mid-1974 onward. This one shows the new dial in an older (undated) case.
This has had a complete rebuild and reconditioning, and is all ready to go. A
ll chrome was polished to restore the shine, and waxed to keep it that way. The original mounting bracket carriage bolt and nut were missing, so I have installed new replacements. T
here is no accumulated mileage
; it's just passing
0000.
