This is a very good used example of thedual-scaleSchwinn 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 was their second-generation example, from the years after Schwinn phased out their original 0-60 MPH speedometer and transitioned to this dual-scale 0-40 MPH design, which includes a 0-60 KmH scale on the inner dial.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. Its datestamp in the upper right corner of the back indicates that it was assembled on the 44th week of 1978. (See Photos 3 & 4)
This has had a complete rebuild and reconditioning, and is all ready to go. There is uniform light speckling in the chrome finish that is visible up close(see Photos 3,4 & 5), but all chrome was polished to restore the shine, and waxed to keep it that way. There is no accumulated mileage; it\'s just passing 0000.1.
Thissale includes:
- Schwinn Approved/Huret Deluxe Speedometer Head (Bench-tested, zero miles)
- Collar nut
- Handlebar mounting bracketwith carriage bolt and nut
This speedo head is in full working order and ready to install. This head can be used in place of the older 0-60 MPH version with the same drive hardware, and can be used on any size of front wheel, as these Huret models are calibrated by the drive hub, not the speedometer head. (Drive cable and drive hub not included; see my other sales for some examples.)
NOTES:
- This sale includes only what is shown in the photos here. If you do not see it in the photos, it is not included!
- Drive cable and drive hub are not included. See my other sales for some examples. This Huret-built speedometer head fits any bicycle; the correct reading is determined by the Schwinn or Huret drive hub (sold separately), which should be stamped with the correct front wheel size for your bike.
