If your parents couldn't afford a Schwinn, you got a Sears Spyder.

I think they were made by Schwinn.

Mine looked like this, and it was a hand-me-down from my brother. The handle on the back of the seat support was used to tow your friends on roller skates.

Can't go wrong with banana seat bikes.

I love that it was page 393 of what was probably over 1000 pages of consumer goods. Time was, you could even buy entire houses through the Sears catalog.
