Wheelie bikes ( which is a slang term for "high rise" bikes) were first sold commercially in California U.S.A. back in Feb/March 1963. The first factory made wheelie-bike (or high-riser bike) was the Huffy "Penguin". Made at Huffman Manufacturings Azusa California bicycle factory. The Penguin bike was made for California bike distributor Pete Mole, of the "John T. Bill" Company. The bike was made to Pete Moles specifications which included 20 inch wheels, a cantilever frame, a "Persons-'Solo Polo seat'" , and Wald brand high riser handlebars.
The Schwinn "Sting-Ray" wheelie bike was officially released in June 1963, and was almost identical to the earlier Penguin bike, except for color.
