He brought to America thoroughness in detail and technique of mechanical fabrication that came as close to realization of perfection in plans and ideals as the human can realize. Covered in frosted black with green metal sheets that complete the mountain bike’s sleek and accurate appearance, the Schwinn Boundary might seem a bit similar to a standard mountain bike.

Schwinn, grandson Frank Valentine Schwinn took over management of the company. At the close of the 1920s, the stock market crash decimated the American motorcycle industry, taking Excelsior-Henderson with it.
