Come on over and pick it up sunday!

Hey! Thanks for your interest!

Here is a link to the thread i started ten years ago when i got it.. https://thecabe.com/forum/threads/crescent-sweden-bike.14605/

UPDATE! I am asking $450 plus shipping. Mid 1940's Swedish crescent bicycle. Hello fellow wheel guys! Its been ten years since i first found this bicycle. I need to make space for my work tools which means that my fun stuff needs to go away. I want to sell this bicycle. Please pm me if...

Nice! Good luck!

Regarding the pierce kramer frame, mine has a peculiar rear dropout, and the bb has no dust cover over the bearings, from the 1916 catalog, thus is for easy oiling track side. Does any of the other racers here show these features as well? Dont see these details in a lot of these images.

Nice! Where ya selling? And how much?

Seen one of these? pierce model A by twowheelfan posted Nov 8, 2011 at 12:48 PM

I am just now seeing this thread. I am sorry i have been away so long! Thankfully someone has seen to it that my serial number has been cataloged! This is all good stuff. It has been years since ive looked at the bike and honestly had given up on research because no one knew anything about it...

Is the stamping clear and deep? Could there be a letter dropping out of the stamping after the "mos"?

I still have this cog if anyone is interested, nothing like reviving a four year old thread

Nice one! Btw

There were lots of us bike manufacturers around the t.o.c. is there evidence of head badge rivets? Columbia bikes had model badges as well as he as badges on the stem or elsewhere. Take a good look on all tubes for badge placements, if no visible stamped serial numbers are evident. The forks...

@barracuda thanks! Was my first significant nyc soda bottle that I dug. You dig too?

I have a Frank Kramer special Pierce. I do know that the racer frames have a different drop out at the back and the BBC cups didn't have dust caps. You can see the bearings. It was stated in the catalogs that the frame was made so chain adjustment didn't change geometry and the open bottoman...

over ten years ago?

Kudos Volksboy! for researching the website! there is tons of research and information within the threads of these pages. good luck on whatever you decide to do with the cycle!

thanks for posting pics! congrats on your new find! I think that you are correct in your assumption regarding racer vs. roadster. you do have some great parts! the brake arm/rear wheel is defiantly original. the seat clamp is cool as well! does it have a patent date? I think I see 1926 on it...

it doesn't piss me off, but i always take the opportunity to inform people.

nice site! everyone here seems to either bash the HD riders or the Japanese import riders, but no one mentioned the jerks who ride the other option!

if you post something to sell and it gets pushed down just bump it! its not that difficult!

that brake arm and probably the whole back wheel was made during WW 2. it is called a black out hub. chrome was saved for the war effort. the rear wheel looks 26" and the front looks 28"

i responded without reading the whole thing, sorry. Its a beauty! for sure

around 1900 to 1915ish just after the boom. are the fenders screwed through the sides at the rear? there are screws in the frame there for some reason. also at the rear fork at the bottlm? maybe the fenders are not supposed to be on this bike.

sort of a longshot here, but a lot of higher end bikes around 1900-1920 used english and french fittings. B.S.A.. Brampton was another company. the forks might be Brampton they did make spring forks for motorcycles early on. they also made chains and pedals. check for a name on the pedals. if...

nick the cut, sorry to be the one to inform you, but Sheldon Passed away Feb 4 2008. He sure was a huge influence on me and collecting cycles. That guy had the answer for everything. his website is the best reference site for anything and all things relating to the mechanics and a lot of the...

how about an empty pickle jar? http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&hash=item35bb7bd4c6&item=230778721478&nma=true&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&rt=nc&si=QJZkGV3pRaHZwRVtW58JfnY6gDg%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc#ht_720wt_1386

nice! i love it when you share! Thanks!

i use i use my bicycle stand to hold the crank arm on the outside of the sproket, it only needs to support the weight of the crank assembly. you dont need excessive force.then use a drift ( sort of like a nail punch but not a chisel, with a flat face,not pointed.) you can get them in several...

$14785.97 16" huffy sweet thunder. was lucky to get it too!

sold and shipped! thanks! i sent you a pm with details. T

pretty tiny,blurry picture bigger, better pic would help. but it looks like a schwinn fork.

crescent looks plausable. looking at MR. Columbia's website and around the web i didnt see any frames by pope/columbia that looked like yours. however Crescent frames look very similar. i will keep looking. i love these mysteries!

dont spend a penny over what you can pay for it.

it rolls man! good job! from a pile of parts. well done. did you weld? or have someone else do it?

my guess is 1963 coppertone jag

offers? any offers? all welcome, all considered. just want it to be used on something.

seriously, these tubes served me well for at least two years! i rode on them every day. the ony reason i am not on them anymore is that i retired the bike, and upgraded to a modern cargo bike as a daily rider. i'm getting rid of balloon stuff and focusing on antique lightweight now.

there is patent date on the bottom bracket. can you search the patent data base for the drawings? have some patience, you'll figure it out, don't do any heavy hitting yet. those pieces are the only ones you have and i'm thinking hens teeth to find.

see that hole on the side with the arm still attached? could that be a retaining ring? it might unscrew. if, you see a clear line between the outer shell and the "ring" then maybe you can use a drift and tap that ring. try gently in either direction. the best thing i can advise is to go to the...

do you have size 8.5 or 9?

thanks for reposting! im a big fan. you have a nice stable. some choice rides!
