Thanks for your original post and the replies. I am actually getting ready to do a similar Flo-bike restoration. Curious - how did you prepare the pieces for chroming, and who did the chroming work?
I spoke with a mechanic at one of the LBS in my area about this track bike and he said that he seemed to recall that some track teams used BBS with these pins as a way to do quick bearing swapouts in multi day races.
I picked this up at a local auction a few months back, but cannot find any comparables in Miyata Works bikes. Very good condition. Rod brakes front and rear. Heavy duty rack and rear kickstand. original handlebar grips and Miyata Works leather saddle. Army green paint with gold pin stripping. No...
Brian R - thanks for the info. I didn’t know about the fenders/brakes/eras. This is my first TOC bike so all this is very much appreciated. And thanks for the idea about the screw hole(s). I‘‘ll try to inspect the tube tomorrow with a flashlight to see if I can see a plugged hole.
Thanks. I sot of thought that too, however all of the Napoleon head badges that I have seen have two screws. The wheels, axles and coaster look a lot like a Jenkins. I appreciate your input.
This is an estate sale bargain that appears to be in good condition but in need of a good cleaning and lubing. There is no headbadge and there is only one screw hole in the steerer tube. The BB is marked with the well known PATD Nov 13, 1888 plus serial # 4383 or 43833. The coaster brake is a...
Sorry. This is short notice. I need a bike frame pickup today (Oct 5, 2019) to be picked up from a site on Dumfries Rd and dropped off at a bike shop also on Dumfries Rd.
Thanks for the response, but I didn’t see any reference to a puller except the small one mentioned above in this thread, but that wasn’t for the needle. As a matter of fact, I don’t know what a puller would use to push against because there isn’t a small “axle” to push against. I think it is...
I am wondering if anyone positively knows how to remove the needle from a Stewart Warner Clipper speedo. I’ve gotten the bezel and glass off, and now just need to get the needle and faceplate off safely so that I can start cleaning the innards.
Just saw this. Advertised as a “Crazy Vintage Sale” of misc. items in Chicago area Aug 2. Bike looks complete. No address for sale yet. I am not in Chicago area. See https://www.estatesales.net/IL/Chicago/60613/2303919
Just saw this auctioning Minnesota. These aren’t top shelf bikes for sure, but the Magneet has nice styling and both look like they would clean up well, and with 1 hour left, no one has left a bid so maybe cheap for someone in MN...
I just saw a listing for an big estate sale in Excelsior MN that looks like it involves (among other things) getting rid of the used and NOS parts from what appears to be a small, in-home bike shop in Minnesota. For anyone in the area, this looks like a good opportunity to dig through parts...
This is a true barn find with a cranky barn owner. He says its JC Higgins but didnt want me messing with it or searching for serial numbers. It looks in remarkable good shape except for the layer of dust and grime and I am sure there is a lot of hidden rust.
Looks a little bizarre and mad-scientisty but this popped up on my feed this morning. Looks scary. For this and other steam power experiments by the deceased see https://www.estatesales.net/MO/Saint-Louis/63129/2094861
Just wondering.

I was able to reach Bilatto via Facebook and one of the brothers confirmed he had made 100+ of these bikes with chromovelato blue paint for DP in the early 80s.
Juvenal - thank you for the link. Yes, the frame and BB look the same. The bike feature in your link is a great looking DP! That gives me something to work towards, although my paint will never be that good.
I don’t know if this is the right sub forum to post this, but I see there is a good looking Ward Hawthorne coming up for auction Dec.31. These bikes aren’t in my wheelhouse so I have no idea about the potential value of such a bike (wish I did but also I am at S-1 already), but I figure someone...
I am not a motorized bike guy so I don’t know if this find is of interest to anyone n the CABE community but I saw there is a Whizzer frame and a box full of motor parts and an original manual at an estate sale n Overland Park, Kansas. The sale starts tomorrow. I know nothing about Whizzers but...
I’ve seen the topic of owners wondering who built their Detto Pietro branded frame come up on line occasionally, but I am not sure it has been totally addressed. I am currently working one one that is fully chromed framed with DP pantographing, Campy components (Super Record rings, RD and FD...
I have no expertise in this era of bikes, so I have no idea about significance or value, and Hope this isn’t old news, but check it out: https://www.proxibid.com/Art-Antiques-Collectibles/Toys-Hobbies/Bicycle-still-in-original-crate/lotInformation/45136256#topoflot
I found an estate sale offering this old Hercules. These are the only photos provide. Can anyone give a general sense of value. It looks to me to be in pretty good shape.
