Finally riding a big boys bike
Rebuilt the rear hub just in time for St. Patrick's Day! Third bar's a charm...
1950 M/W Hawthorne Triple bar aka 3 bar. These were made from 1950-52 and badged Hawthorne as well as Monark. So far we (the general bike community and 3 bar owners) know of 9, possibly 10 men's triple bars (2 might be the same bike, different owners-can't confirm). One of the ten was stolen in Denver, CO and its whereabout is unknown at this time.

Swapped out the Hawthorne guard (not original to this bike) for a Colson 'Turkey leg'. I think it was red originally, then repainted with a smooth topcoat of green house paint that damn near matches the Snyder green paint perfectly. The broad face really fills the void on this large frame.
