1957 cruisers'

I have two bikes here and I don't know what they are or what they are worth. The product # is stamped on the right rear axle mount and online says it from 1957 sent to Chicago. Both models are different one a low step and ones a male cruiser of some kind. Can't upload pictures until I make 10 posts so here's to nine more. 😁

Although it's not from the 50's, it still looks like it's be a fun ride. If the other bike is similar, I'd bet that cool, too.

That's a Schwinn Cruiser Supreme from the 1980s, manufactured in Taiwan by Giant. Depending on the condition in it's in, it's worth $50-$200.

Looks like an early 2000's box store psuedo-Schwinn.

Based on the seat tube sticker it looks like it is from 1986. Could be a Cruiser 5 thats been converted to single speed.

In my market, 25 to 65 bucks, it's early to middle 80's. even cleaned up they are not sought after.
