WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO CRUISE ON A VINTAGE CRUISER BIKE?

    
   Finally its time for biking in Chicago. Don't have wheels? Well, walk in to Vintage Underground and you can ride away on a great vintage bike. We have a sweet selection including Raleigh, Windsor, and Schwinn. Our current choices start at only 75 bucks. Yes, for real: $75.00!! 
     You know that Vintage Underground is known for unusual finds of all kinds...and one very notable find is a motorized 1950's cruiser. It's a beauty. Come and see it, visit with Carlos and Ellen and check out the bikes!

We have fun amidst our 3000+ square feet of vintage jewelry-filled showcases, racks of vintage clothing, shelves of cameras, electronics, and all kinds of unusual finds awaiting your discovery...and you will have fun too.
