On Training Wheels
I recently came across this and honestly have no idea what it is. It doesn't seem to match any military bike criteria perfectly. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The story I was told was that it was a "bring back" from WWII. I don't have the knowledge to confirm nor deny this, but I'm tempted to think this one was pieced together. What I can tell you is this: The bicycle has 26" wheels. Rear hub is stamped "torpedo DRP 50 Millioneon 1904-1940. Frame is stamped with a serial number on the left side of the stem and "1940" on the right. Bicycle has a coaster brake stamped "torpedo" and a front push down style brake. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
