[Ozark Flyer]

Wow! Really nice. It's turning into a regular DX love-fest. Who would have thought that of the lowly DX.

I love mine and it has been for sale for a while asking $900 original. missing the rear rack... if it ever had one.

-41 has a K2 41 Dated Morrow rear hub everything else as Freqman1 described the gooseneck is a Wald number three.

mine is Goodrich badged says challenger on the tank.

Here's my 41 Dx, / Excelsior.
Notice the painted rims, fender braces and truss rods. This bike rides as smooth as butter.

Let me know if you need pics. of bike details.

Good Luck with your build!

was the painting of those parts a Excelsior thing? cause my41 maroon dx has the same painted parts like yours does

Not an Excelsior thing, I think is has to do with the fact that we were nearing war (1941)... perhaps a pre-black out parts during the war.

Cool, to help with the war efforts

I agree this was a smoking deal, but I think it would have brought more money if the seller would have been willing to ship.
