Excellent survivor bicycle available from an iconic crossover company -
Gendron "Signal" No. 3 young ladies 24" wheel safety bicycle.
Lots of excellent features:
Tough to find bicycles this size especially in nice colorful condition, a great addition to any collection trying to show the full breadth of colors of the 1890's.
$1,200 shipped CONUS from Richmond, VA or available for pickup at ML.
I will be traveling to central Mass at the end of this week for any possible delivery options.
These are photos I took some time ago for the purposes of sharing but I can take more detail photos for any serious potential buyer.
Gendron "Signal" No. 3 young ladies 24" wheel safety bicycle.
Lots of excellent features:
- DUAL original paint(s)! As described in the catalog it has both the optional orange enamel and the optional maroon over the orange. The effect after 120+ years is close to a pomegranate.
- "Bolt-on" seat stays as per many high end mfgs.
- Concealed spoon brake in steer tube functions well *but the handle has broken off long ago as shown.
- Wood handlebars with killer integral wood grips seemingly all one piece? The grips do not appear to come off.
- Original 24" wood wheelset
- Original chainguard, skirt guard fender, and lacing remnants.
- Lovely solid early saddle
- Original pedals though one is partial.
- Fixed gear, block chain drivetrain.
- Lovely paint matched braces for original chianguard- a feature I have not seen before
