    Sold 50's BSA Parcel Carrier (British Cycle Truck) $300 for a limited time Local pickup only Mount Airy, NC 27030

    This appears to be a 50's BSA. Jeweled pedals, functioning rod brakes, wrong size tires someone threw onto the rims for some odd reason. Beefy, beefy, I mean BEEFY, front stand and basket holder. Brooks saddle, sad repaint. I will include a giant vintage wicker basket that fits perfectly into...

    Sold Teens Mead Sovereign $350 Local pickup only in Mount Airy, NC 27030

    I am being told that this is definitely a teens bike rather than early 20's. But I added a pair of true 28" steel clinchers from a mangled 22 Crusader. Luckily , 27x1-1/4 tires fit. The original 28" tires for these would have the same ID, but slightly larger OD. The grips were carved by someone...

    1939 Westfield Peerless badged. Badge says Peerless, everything else says Columbia. Is a "Custom Deluxe", as screened on the downtube.

    Sold 1936 Mead Crusader Headed up the road

    This is a 36 Mead Crusader with Carlisle whitewalls. Pretty nice rider, probably currently my favorite to get around on.. Seat is worn. Probably could use cleaning overall. I think the paint would come back red with some cleaner polish. Tank is nice and clean, all the graphics are fair. Has the...

    Sold kickstand clearout $40 shipped

    Over the years, I would keep bolt-on kickstands because I always have one to fit any build. Now it is time to make some room. The 8 on the right are WALD. On the left is an Atwood, a Greenfield, and some unstamped stands off of older free-spirits and stuff like that. It would be difficult to...

    There is some rust but also still has a lot of the original black paint, and what looks like possibly an original screw with the low-profile head and square nut.

    Looking for info on this odd prewar rack

    I really like it. It can fold down to act as a normal rack, or fold upwards to hold things inside. It reminds me of the produce basket racks like a friend of mine has on the back of his cycletruck, except his is round and doesn't fold or anything. Anyways, I just want to know more about it. I am...

    Goodrich Silvertown reflectors One available

    Have two available. Both have minor wrinkling on the ears as you can see in the pics. I thought about putting them in a vice between two flat pieces of metal, but I will let the next owners try. "A" does not say Goodrich, and the reflector has cracks, but the pieces don't move and I can't see...

    Sold 6V handlebar mounted light Hall Lamp co. $45 shipped SOLD

    This has old original cloth-covered wire in poor shape. As a result, while testing the bulb (which initially worked) the exposed hot wire contacted the mount, blowing the bulb. So you will need a 6V bulb and some wire. But the mount is really cool. Has a rusty visor which has a spot for a...

    Sale Pending UPDATED Prewar rat trap rack 26-28" $90 shipped

    Sold Prewar rack/stand combo $140 shipped

    I believe this is correct for some prewar Iver Johnsons. I just think it is a good option for any bike that you would like to put a rack and stand on. Especially if you frame doesn't have the ears for a stand. Screws are likely not correct. I have only seen one in person other than this one, and...

    This can be deleted. Thanks

    I have searched this site and other online resources to try to determine pricing. They don't come up for sale too often in any condition, so there wasn't much in the way of recent sales to base it on. But if sales over the past years in relation to condition is any indication, then I think I'm...

    In need of 20" prewar/early postwar fender

    I am looking for a prewar 20" front fender with the flat braces. Painted preferred over any kind of plated or stainless/aluminum. Need deep rounded style, not raingutter or anything fancy. Nothing too dented up or rusted out, but condition doesn't need to be too amazing. It's going to get...

    Roadmaster Cycle Truck info needed

    Hello. I picked up what is likely a late 30's Roadmaster Cycle Truck, or delivery bike, or whatever the correct name is. I have been all over the net looking for info, but not much is out there. Any images are of repainted or badly rusted bikes, or containing lots of incorrect parts. I'd really...

Has some paint rubbed off where the frame was and where battery can straps were touching, and some spots of rust. I have not tried cleaning or derusting in any way, so hopefully it can look...

    Elgin Oriole For Trade (looking For Highwheeler)

    Well, this is going to be the definition of a longshot... but you never know. So please don't be harsh. I'm not stupid, just hopeful. I am in need of a highwheeler with a 48"-50" wheel. My current ride is a 52". I can ride it fine but I think it is just slightly large. I intend to start riding...

    Elgin Oriole

    I picked this up cheap at a flea market pretty close by. It is rough. The back wheel was pretty badly bent. I have since been working on it and am making progress.

    high wheel tire questions

    This is a 60's repro, but as the same principle applies I am posting here. I am helping a friend with a high wheel. The previous owner had taken it to a local museum/shop for tire replacement, as there was a gap at the tire seam. Fortunately (I suppose), a little wd40 around the tire allowed the...

    skiptooth sweetheart, near mint $40 shipped

    This is about as nice as any I've seen. It has a small area of peppering that is barely noticeable. A couple tiny nicks maybe or faint scratches. The only noticable scratches are where the race tightened against it and where the outer crank arm seated against the chainring. I had hoped to find a...

    1948 Schwinn seat $50 shipped

    The seat obviously has no material left on it. It is single pan construction with a metal band (which has some breaks in a couple spots) that the material would be stitched to.
