You sure that’s a 59? Thought they only made this style in 61-62

It’s a 59- 60 , 61-62 were the continuous straight bars not the detached straight bars

The Twin bar was 1959 thru mid 1961. The "continuous" Twin bar was mid 1961 thru 1962.

Good morning Caber’s!
I’ve been looking at many of your double flat bars and I noticed that my flat bar frame has dimples on the inside of the left side chain stays top and bottom. Any idea why?

The pictures aren't the best but besides the paint missing they look pretty good. Not saying there are not talented people out there that could do it but they look original. How do they compare to the placement of a whizzer?

I've been looking high and low for this 1955 spokeless model. From what oldbikeguy1960 says, some collectors must have them ALL and they're hanging on the walls of their pole barns and won't let any of them go.

20” s-7s… wish they were s-2’s.. but still cool!

They look spot on to me but I’ll be the first one to tell ya that I’ve never seen a legit one in person. I’ll also tell ya that Gt is awesome with identifying these bikes and he definitely knows his poop! Lmao!
