Elgin Junior

[Shark Bikes]

Searched for info on an 24" wheeled Elgin Junior I have , no luck . Any info helpful on its origins . I put it together with a few mismatched parts and updated wheels to ride it .

Hi,

If there are numbers stamped on the bb, this will help date it. Put them up here (or PM me if you're shy) and we can do that for you.

Best Regards,

Adrian

I had this 26" junior bike I suspected was an Elgin circa 1910

Hi,

Thanks for checking for the numbers. It's unusual that there's nothing there at all. The only times I've seen this are with ones where the number has been removed (but this doesn't look like that, it"s not usually a neat job), some 1917 Military Columbia's (it's not one of those (-; ), and with factory replacement frames. So maybe it's that?

Sorry I can't help more.

Best Regards,

Adrian
