MEET STINGRAY BOB
Customer Highlight: A Schwinn-obsessed master craftsman
Stingray Bob at the classic car show in Milford

Bob earned his moniker “Stingray Bob” from a lifetime of buying, selling, and exquisite renovations of Schwinn’s famous, classic Stingray bicycles. We ran into Stingray Bob at last week’s classic car & trailer show at Baker’s of Milford. True to form, he was toting a few pieces from his beautiful collection. If you’re ever in the market to buy or sell a Stingray, Bob’s your man!
