Arch & Truss Bar Bicycles, A Catalog Of Information

[bricycle]

Not sure who made this bike, looks like an Iver chainring? It's a picture from 1920 of a man named Tony Pizzo who road across the US. Notice he was also chained to the bike?!View attachment 291983

Hi ,

I got recently this bike in Paris , and am busy looking for its make and model ; so far I've found a couple of dozens of archbar manufacturers across France and US , but not been able to determine which one is it ;
probably not an Iver J , nor a Westfield /Pope/Columbia

if you can read french , you'll find many pictures and info on our forum here : http://forum.tontonvelo.com/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=25702
any idea ?

Here's one of those Mead Ranger Archbars all original. Still has the crowned fork and original red single tube tires. Safely tucked away...

This one I have has trumpet fittings and a Mead rib fork, chain ring is like the Excelsior. Morrow rear hub. Long darts on seat tube just like the ranger shown above.
