Girls Simplex bike info

Neanderthal77

Wore out three sets of tires already!
Picked up this Simplex bike today made by Simplex manufacturing of New Orleans. Not finding much information about it besides the company making motorcycles. Which I think are too cool looking! Just one ad about the introduction of bicycles in 51'. Seems to be pretty original except for the schwinn grips. New Departure rear hub and not sure about the front. Love the darts and pins on this bike. It has a Browns' Cycle Center sticker from Long Beach. If you have any information or pictures of bikes please post. Thank you

WOW!!!!! Rare, Rare, Rare!!!!!! Never seen one! Beautiful logo on head tube, and I love how they incorporated the same basic design style to the fork as with their motorbikes. And, if it's built with the same integrity as their motorbikes, it's built TOUGH! If it were a boys, I think this is one I'd have to own.

Thank you. I loved the look of the bike all around and had to have it. It is definitely built tough. I didn't notice how the bb was connected until I got it home. I was too busy looking at the fork and these fenders that seem huge. Any other boys or girls bikes out there, or even some pictures?
 
Too cool, and the STP decal! WE all wanted one of those on our bikes in the 60s. Great Browns bike shop decal too. Excellent find!
TR6SC Mike, check out this shop decal! Long Beach...
