1949 B6..truss rod fender vs springer fender difference

[Thonyv1974_]

My 46 b-507 has a springer and it's one long indentation. I think it's the prewar style.

That is likely a 41 part leftover. ?

I was looking to buy this fork but now it is sold, you will see 10 Pre War forks for every one post war.

If you buy a fork try to find one that includes the truss rods. They are 3/8" and not easy to find. Fortunately, I was able to clean mine up. A bunch of 1/2" out there, very few 3/8".

Yea. I think so. It has lobdell rims and a shorty fender so it's a mid 46 bike.

My wife's 46 has 41 sprocket and likely other prewar pieces. ..

Mine is prewar style Im sorry. I didn't see the truss rod difference. I apologize. 130$ shipped is what I have it listed for! I'll keep my eyes peeled for a post war style

found my fork for 60 bucks!! I also got a fender for the fork, but I will be grafting the front half of my train light fender with the rear of a plain fender.... seems like post war truss rod train light fenders are rare and expensive.... anyone have one for sale?
