Had to share this one. Just a little long term project *wink wink nudge nudge ha ha ha* not sure on the year. Found a catalog and it appears to be the Sentinel the only info I have on the Amazon points to 1902


It wasn't me I swear.

Beautiful! Is that the chainring hanging in the background?
You gotta restring the skirt guard fender. If not sure how, scour the threads. Otherwise start a new one inquiring about it. Great project. Do you have any of the other missing components you would like to share?

I have been wrestling whith what to do with this frame forever, it feels like. I finally found a bottom bracket I can use for it to make it a rider for Kate. I had to make a couple concentric sleeves. I am going to use a stronglight crank I slightly modified and I will have to make a new hoop for the chain cover but it fits in my budget and is still a stunner. I have a set of metal clad lod bell hoops and a set of white enamel wood hoops that have never been mounted I may use later. This will get it under her butt though and back in periodic use.

I have another short saddle frame I just need to stitch up some leather for it. We have a seer sucker Sunday so I am loaning her one of mine. I will just swap out that front spring so she has a little more room to step through.
