Scale model Bicycles

Couple of Japanese compaies made them a buncha years ago. Fujimi, maybe. Check Hobbylink Japan or ePay.

Entex, IIRC, made a 1/10 or so Schwinn 10 speed in the early '70s. eBay.

These folks have several though they tend to be pricey.

PROTAR (Italy) used to have 1:9 scale series of racing bikes. Nice kits with plastic and diecast parts. I have one of those, but I'm not parting with it. I'm sure they're long out of production. But there always is eBay....

Thank you for your help Julie

You did not mention a scale, but if you are interested in something as small as 1/35th scale, Hornet makes some really neat WWII bicycles and "mini(motor)-bikes." They are white metal and photo-etched-brass kits:

Some subjects to add to your search:

Otaki 1/6 Jr. Road Racer Series

No. 1 "Monza" No. 2 "Jarama"* No. 3 "Indy" No. 4 "Daytona"

(I have only the Jarama)

The instructions are completely in Japanese, but the line drawings are very good. Kit includes lots of chrome, its flash-free, has metal axles with nuts, and includes soft, solid rubber tires. The design is crude, as were the all steel bikes of that era.

When was it released? My guess is in the mid- to late-70s. This will probably be a tough find, as will its kin listed above.
