Wore out three sets of tires already!
Hopefully this is helpful for anyone putting a pre war or maybe even post war Roadmaster together. A pre war 26" boys bike came to me less a few parts including the rear wheel. The front wheel was included which appears to be nice quality deep drop center (Lobdell?) which is a full 1-1/2" wide. The front hub is un-marked and is the same one I have seen on other Roadmasters, pre and just post war. My questions are:
1) Was this a standard front hub that Roadmaster or CWC used?
2) If it is, when was it used, with Morrow rear hubs only? Did they use it in combination with New Departure rear hubs, or did they use ND front hubs when they used ND rear hubs or whatever the hell was on the shelf?
Please see attached photo of the front hub in question.
I hope these questions make sense!
Thank you, BW:eek:
