1895 Rambler rat traps

[Frank Heath]

We are nearly finished restoring a G & J Rambler #10 racer and we need rat traps to complete the project. The bicycle weighed 14.5 pounds with wooden rims when it was new, and raced in Grinnell College track meets and races in eastern Iowa.

expext to pay $100 or so for rusty, $150 for decent or $200+ for nice nickle.

Mike Cates makes some gorgeous Torrington Star pedals.

 

[bricycle]

are those all new, or new exact replicas?....meaning, will those end caps screww on to old pedals? and if so, does/will he sell separately????

 

[GiovanniLiCalsi]

Not sure.
I'm assuming they are.

I would really like to see a few pictures of this racer. All I have collected for 35 years are racers and had about 100 original - all track.
Have seen a couple of model 26 racers but never a model 10. Post pics if you can ...

The pedals are beautiful. What do they sell for.

Last time I spoke with Mike, he said that he has retired from making the pedals....
