Does anyone know what this bike is?

Wow! I feel Real stupid now. Sorry. Thank you for not laughing.

Lol it is unusual though, in my venture trying to find out who made it and looking through different pictures I haven't seen one like that. Most have the back struts attached to the frame not to the seat clamp.

Rudge? Not sure exactly.

Might be onto something there. Found a pic that looks similar. Hard to tell though

Found a serial number of 6313 on the bottom bracket on left side. Does anyone know what make this would be from?

Jennifer, I have an 80's Dutch bike that has the same bolts. They're also the attachment point for a rear rack. I had never seen that before I got my bike. Maybe it's European thing.

The rear stays bolted on instead of brazed to the seat tube is what CCM in Canada was famous for, I know of one other Canadian company that was doing that as well, the Sunshine Bicycle Corporation. I'm not saying its either of those two but just an idea.
