Crescent Chainless 1898 No. 1

[Kurt S.]

Hi all,

Does anyone have an example of, or know of one on display somewhere, of a 1898 Crescent Chainless #1?

Need to get my eyeballs on one to authenticate a chainless I have.

Sincere thanks, Kurt

Do you have a picture of what you have? I'm looking to ID mine as well.

Actually, I just identified my bicycle. It can be viewed on the Wheelmens site in some detail. However, I might be able to assist you in your efforts. Do you have a photo showing the opposite side of the bicycle, the shaft drive including the front crank and rear tail-shaft.

Also, if you can take a look to see how many teeth are on each gear throughout the drive line.

These two thing can help to narrow down the search and identify what this actually is.
