I have a 1951 Belknap, Huffman built and essentially the same bike as the Huffy Customliner. I was able to track down a chain-guard and now I need the hex head screw that connects the guard to the bottom bracket shell. Does anyone know what size screw, and if it's a standard thread pitch, or is...

I don't have a lot of info, so I apologize for that. I'm interested in a bike that's pretty rough but don't know a fair ballpark figure to offer. It looks like it's a prewar Shelby? bicycle I'm waiting to hear back about the serial so I don't know if it's a J or H. The motor appears to be...

Is there a list of where they sourced their bikes from? I'm mainly interested in the early ones (1895-1900) sold under the Mead & Prentiss badges such as "Albion".

The first is an olive green frame with ornate gold scroll work and slightly larger than normal diameter tubing. It's fully lugged. Serial on bottom left hand side of head tube (323583 or 823583) The second is has a partially split bottom bracket (just where the cups are), "D" shaped...

I'm looking for the non drive side adjustable bearing race, washer and maybe the bearing if you have it. I have the nut that goes on the crank axle, so I don't need that. The race has decorative raised bumps around the circumference.

I'm trying to think of the maker who produced saddles with a single flat leaf spring undercarriage. The front of the leaf spring bolts to the wood seat base, the rear of the spring fits through a cast bracket to allow it to slip slightly as it moves. The saddle top was the cutout type.

Were there juvenile sized lamps, or is this just a particularly tiny lamp? Shown next to a normal sized "pathfinder" lamp.

The captions are in Dutch, but the video is pretty fascinating. The machine at 2:29 has a pretty clever brake. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xnN-IAb68k

I'm interested in a set of wood rims which the seller claims are approx. 25-1/2 inches across (to the edge, not the bead), would you say that these are 28" rims?

Any hints or help would be greatly appreciated in identifying this frame. I know that diamond frames are typically tough to ID due to the similarity between hundreds of manufactures, but maybe I'll get lucky. At this point I dont even know if its American or European. It has lugged construction...

The earliest catalog I've found on the net that includes the imported lightweight models is the 1952 Christmas edition. I'm trying to figure out when Sears first started offering them. I'm assuming it has to be somewhere around 1950-1952? Does anyone have any ideas?

It's a bare mens diamond frame and it has been repainted which leaves few clues as to the exact age or model. The serial number is 2535xx which I assume would date it to somewhere between 1912 and 1916? Is there any way to work it down any closer than that or is my best bet to another with a...

I'm working on a 30's-ish Iver Johnson with the two piece crank. I've managed to remove the end "nut" without completely mangling it but now I need to remove the crank arm. It sits upon a 3 sided taper. Unlike modern tapered crank arms, this one has no threads for a puller. There isn't much room...
