Bet You Have Never Seen This Before.... Bike Discs!!
I was looking over a 1941 popular science magazine and I saw this. Old bike ad for "bike discs" ....on a Schwinn bike ....looks like a c model tanker. no chain guard? big old delta fender light. Now this is rare stuff right here.....
Kool, but I'm not sure I agree with it taking the work(shock) away from the spokes.....
It may help keep the wheel from distorting in an impact to some extent, but spokes? It would have to ride on the axle or attach directly to the hub to keep shock off spokes.
Bri,
yeah i hear that....the bmx phase in the 80s 90s noted that their discs cut down drag....this ad could have added that this would be the ultimate in streamline.... i have never seen these in any form.....i wonder what became of them...
cool wheel covers, nothing is really rare here on the cabe, in about a few months we will have a few people show to sell those very discs.
Just like Schwinn Motobikes are rare, but several show up every year.
