6 day racer

[sam]

Open stays seem to be a French/Canadian trait---I'd ask who maybe learned the craft in Canada?

that's a 71" gear - easy to ride, but you may be spinning to keep up Sunday.

Without brakes I won't be leading the group anyway

For me, that front fork has a lot of rake in it to be a 6-Day Racer. Most 6-Day bikes had a straighter fork to handle the banks. Even back in the 20's the forks were pretty straight for the 6-Day bikes. Interesting and nice frame work!

My (made in New York City) Drysedale Velox has similar open ended pencil seat stays.
