La J.C. Higgins de Sears: una bicicleta clásica del '56 | El Pedaleo-Parte 1

We're kicking off "El Pedaleo," a new segment about vintage bicycles. In this first episode, we sit down with Mario, Edwin, and Don Ángel to take apart a gem: a 1956 J.C. Higgins 26-inch, the brand of bicycles distributed by Sears. We talk about its history, the origin of the name, the headlight with the external wire and the battery hidden in the tank, how much it cost back then, and why these bicycles are true collector's items. El Pedaleo — a segment of El Servicarro. 🔧 Production: J+Media 🔔 Subscribe to El Servicarro and turn on notifications EPISODES: 00:00 - Welcome: El Pedaleo begins 01:46 - Everyone's first bicycle 06:20 - The bike: between transportation and fun 07:53 - Men's frame vs. Women's 09:33 - The J.C.
