Great to have radios built into bikes.

When I used to ride a bike I had a radio that installed on the handlebars and listened while biking all the time. Don't think you can get bicycle radio's anymore.

They were made in the early 70's.  They were all AM and usually took a 9V battery.  We fond some one time in an attic of an old house that we were helping a neighbor move into.  They were never opened.  I wonder what the AM reception would have been like on those Radio's.  If I remember right they were a bear to tune.  Very narrow dial.

It's an Archer Road patrol from Radio Shack.   There's a nice variety of bike radios of various vintages available on ebay pretty cheap.  Mine ran on 3 D batteries.
