1913-16 Sears Master

You've got your work cut out for you. Pretty rare parts to track down, but not impossible. Best of luck and keep us posted as it's always good to see these survivors 100+ years from when they were built.

Well it’s been almost 9 years- I got this bike frame for my 14th birthday, I’m about to turn 23 now. I finally think this bike is where I want it to be. When I was younger I didn’t have the financial freedom for a project like this. Then this project got put to the side for the last 4 years while I was in the Marine Corps. This bike got me into the hobby at a young age, so after almost 9 years it’s very rewarding to finally do this bike right.
There’s still some small things to finish up, but here’s the bike now.

Thank you to all the Cabe members who have pitched in some knowledge or that I’ve sourced any parts from.

Nice bike; haze gray and underway!

I had a Davis-built diamond frame (Rugby) with a sideways 191,000-serial; and the headset and bottom bracket cup necks were all stamped with the number “3” making me believe that the bicycle dated from 1913.
