Roger DeCoster is widely recognized as the one of the best racers in motocross, he won five 500cc Motocross World Championships and many other national championships. He was inducted into the Motorcycle Hall of fame in 1999. Information: Roger Decoster BMX Schwinn. The year was 1979. Roger DeCoster was a private label brand that was made for and sold to Schwinn. It was realized that BMX Products where leading the BMX market with BMX racing teams, advertising and promotions. The Roger Decoster frame kit came in long or short frames made of 4130 chromoly. They were manufactured by BMX Products, Inc. for Schwinn and sold only in Schwinn dealerships. The Roger DeCoster frames came in nickel, Red, Blue, and Yellow. Only the short frame came in a nickel finish. The Roger DeCoster frame can easily be identified by the oval in the front gusset behind the head tube.

Schwinn produced a line of various Krate bikes in the 1970s, identified by their ape hangar handlebars and banana seats. A bit of mystery surrounds the Grape Krate—no one knows if it ever was produced though some say a limited number were made in 1969. The limited edition of 1,999 Grape Krates will be sold with ape hanger handlebars and metal-flake vinyl banana seats. "We wanted to have fun with this and celebrate the end of the millennium with something uniquely Schwinn. And any relationship with Prince, the color purple or the 1999 album is purely coincidental," said Gregg Bagni, senior vice president of marketing and product development at Schwinn. The bike will be available to consumers beginning with the Schwinn Cycle Madness Spectacular from May 8-16. The Grape Krate is shrouded in mystery. It was available in 1969 but only as a single speed. No wait, 200 were made in 1970 and they all had stick shifts. No, that’s not right; the company planned to launch them in ’72, but the CPSC decision killed it outright. Obviously there’s been much conjecture about Grape Krates, and to this day experts dispute whether they actually existed or not. But regardless of its nebulous past, the Grape Krate has now been reborn. And this is your chance to get one. Here’s the lowdown on the 1999 special edition Grape Krate. We will produce no more than 1999 of these special edition "end of the millenium" bikes. The specifications are the same as used on the 1999 reissue Apple & Orange Krates. Only dealers participating in our spring Cycle Madness promotion will be eligible to receive these bikes in strictly limited quantities. Call your local dealer to verify that they are participating in Cycle Madness. Cycle Madness ’99 runs from May 8th – 16th 1999. Schwinn has no suggested retail price for this bicycle. Check our web site for details and participating dealers starting in April. ___________________________________________________________________ Schwinn General Mills Honey Nut CheeriosDesigns And Artwork by Mike Taylor.
