It’s all about the wheels....

Wheels alone are probably worth that.

I’ve had this one hanging abound for a while. It didn’t have the right fenders when I got it so since the Dixie flyer head badge was blue, I thought these peaked fenders would look good on it. And they do! Anyways I’m trying to rind out what the correct wheels would be for it, and year...

Bump

There’s wiggle room. I think the that came with the bike is actually a HTS hub. Would trade if should need it.

ISO 32 spoke fixed toc hub. Must be in riding condition. Would buy complete wheel if in good condition. Thanks.

ISO 32 spoke toc fixed hub. Would buy wood wheel complete if in good condition. Thanks

Figured I would add this here. Another Kundtz... found on a fixed hub

I found one today...

A TOC Tuesday entry. 1896 Model 45 Columbia.

ISO set of pedals for very early pneumatic tire wood wheel bike I’m trying to put back on the road. Need the nuts for backside also. I may end up having to just find similar pedal and make shafts to fit. I can’t find original pics of what they would look like. My guess is bike is probably 91-93.

Interested in toc pedals for sure. Maybe 1 set bars too. Long time wheelman but new member. Can’t figure out how to contact.

If any of you are ever around one of these Model 40's, 44's, 45's, ask the owner if they will let you pick it up to check the weight. You'll be pleasantly surprised.

i love mine.

Parts needed for very early Lozier pneumatic tire wood wheel bike. Scrub brake itself is very specific so I'll probably have to make it myself, but I guess there's always a chance. The fork is hinged in the back with an internal pin put in the fork tube to connect a spring to. I'm looking for...

I have the mens and women's models. They ride nicely! Love them old Sears bikes....

I used a natural cotton twine from my local hardware store. If you look closely down where the fender attaches near the crank, you can see the inside, or bottom side of the fender. That should help a little.

Here's one I did. I've done a couple this way and they've came out nice IMO. There's a small strip on the underside of the fender for the loop.

Never seen another one....

These are a bit more work to get in good rideable condition. they didn't use caged bearings yet, so when you take this thing apart, be sure to have a large catch container under it, or you'll be crawling around on the floor trying to find all the little balls. I did an early Gazelle once, and...

Need Iver Johnson drop stand for 28" wheel bike. I have the brackets and nuts. Dropstand on it now is not correct. Model 88 Service Bike.

That's nice. I always wanted a Columbia arch bar. Maybe one day. That saddle is fine in my opinion. You may even want to go with a Brooks if you have plans to ride it much. That would look good too. In my opinion....

24". But it's not too hard to ride. I'm 5'7". I have a peg on the rear axel and mount and dismount like a high wheel. May sound weird. Works well for me. Bike is very light. You would be surprised.

PM sent on drop stand

If it's a model 45, it will say it on it's head badge. Here's mine. The crank looks correct.

Not really a persons height that figures into this. Has more to do with inseam, and a persons physical fitness. I think Nyle is about 5' 10" to 6'. I've seen this one in person. It is beautiful.

Is this for real? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Antique-High-Wheeler-Bicycle-Penny-Farthing-Bike-W-Stand-Horn-As-Is-Restore-Proj/323304225462?hash=item4b466efab6:g:t~kAAOSwnvVbJVHO

Saddle added today. Now she's complete! Frame on this thing is very unique.

My grandson was having problems finding a bike to get started on. Too big for tricycles, not comfortable on training wheels. He loves this thing and I'm gonna get it cleaned up for him. missing the head badge though. If someone has one for sale, let me know. Would like for it to be complete.

Looks pretty good. https://boston.craigslist.org/bmw/atq/d/fleet-wing-1930s-bicycle/6599378627.html

ISO TOC ladies bike. Nothing fancy. As complete as possible. The young lady we need it for has more desire than funds. No rusty junk please. This will be used as a rider. Wheels not necessary. Would like to have head badge on it. Frame. fork, crank, bars, seat post. Will send you pics of the...

Looking to trade this Shelby Cadillac for a TOC bike. By TOC, I mean pre 1910. No motorbikes please. Prefer 20-22" frame. Doesn't have to be really fancy. Wheels not necessary. Would like to do local trade, but i can ship for the right deal. There's lots of these bikes in collections that people...

Complete and in working order New Departure 2 speed wheel set. Front is New Deparure "W". These are originally laced to pre war Schwinn rims. Not shipping. $625 I can deliver to the Copake Swap or Auction. I've never tried to clean at all. Contact me if you need more pics. I've ridden this wheel...

I built a set of Stutzman's with a 2 speed kickback. Yes it's a skip tooth. Used black spokes and tied the crosses.

I'll give it a shot. When, where? Depends on length and flatness. I imagine I could get a couple more....

We'll be bringing a bunch of old junk again I reckon. Always a fun swap. We've taught several people to ride a high wheel at this event. I rode my first chopper there!

Looks like lots of fun! Not sure if going, but looks good.

One thing is for sure, you never know what will pop up at that swap meet. Surprises every year.

There's a set BIN on ebay.

Original ones are hard to find. Best bet is to just go to swap meets and keep your eyes open. Be first at the meets though. Those get grabbed up quickly. Just keep riding the bike. They'll pop up somewhere, someday. They come up on ebay occasionally.

I ride mine a lot. Very comfortable for me. Looks a bit tall, but with the saddle lowered, it's easy. I mount it, and get off of it from the rear. 1896 Pope Model 45.

Nice Craig.

I ran across this one and it kinda fit into a project I'm working on so I grabbed it. It's on a metal clad rim. Did a certain brand use a CC?

Lets talk.

Can someone put a model name to this Higgins? This one was clearly used by someone that had a paper route. I haven't had a chance to clean it up yet, and I bet this one will shine up nicely.

Those are some nice bikes. I've been looking for the right ladies Spaceliner for a while to go with my mens. I wouldn't mind seeing a pic of the Ford in the garage either.

I love short top tube frames like that one. Easy for someone old to ride. That bike will make a fantastic rider just like it is. Love it.

Sent you a question...

Beautiful. I'll have one of those some day.... Enjoy
