VINTAGE SCHWINN APPROVED CHROME BIKE SPEEDOMETER HEAD HURET BICYCLE SPEEDO

Description

(This is a new auction, not a relisting!)
This is a clean (though
not perfect
) used example of a first-generation 0-60 MPH Schwinn Approved speedometer head from Huret of France, made in the original series from 1968-74.
T
his has had a full rebuild and odometer reset, and it is in full working order with a shiny overall finish. It's been disassembled, freshly lubricated, polished, waxed and reassembled, turning freely and ready to go.
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 white numbers on a black dial, and a bright orange pointer. There is an area of
light chrome finish peeling on the rear case
, mostly on the right side
(see photos 3, 4 & 5)
, although it's not obvious. A
ll chrome
has been polished to restore the shine, and waxed to keep it that way. There is no accumulated mileage; it's just passing
0000.
