30" wheel TOC big chainring bike.

[Mark Mattei]

Corbin CB, 30" wheels, big chainring, suspension seatpost, adjustable handlebar/stem, quick removal fenders, odd pedals with no adjustable metal "straps" and leather "toe clips" (toe clips have perished) any ideas on brand or any other insight? Thanks, Mark.

What a beauty! Do you think those fender are a later retrofit? They almost look home made. Amazing condition!!

Any sign of a brake lever being mounted on those bars? Usually those type of front mudguards stop short due to there being a tyre friction brake mounted fore the fork crown. Love the frame transfers.
Lovely machine, wish I were wheeling that one down the road this morning, beautiful!

Hi, no sign of brake linkage, when I disassembled and relubed the CB I recall a 98 on the internals, 1898 year of manufacture?

The 30” bicycle wheel craze was from 1896-1901. Lots of bicycles had many upgrades.
The Corbin coaster brake is rare, later edition.
The hub was was made after the New Departure law suit, probably around 1902?
