Found Hawthorne/Rollfast banana tank

[MrAustralia]

Hi CABE,

I'm after a banana tank for a rollfast /Hawthorne bicycle.

I've missed out on a few lately, and there's one for sale here on the CABE at the moment but is financially out of reach.

Condition only needs to be solid, I don't need orig paint or anything like that.

I've got other tanks to trade (rollfast long tank, Higgins colorflow and a shelby "gilled" tank) if interested. Photos on request.

What's out there and at what cost.

Cheers

MrA

I sold that blue horizontal gills tank years ago because it wasn't correct for my 37 Rollfast, and got myself a vertical gills tank which I'm selling now. I think your bike MrAustralia should have vertical gills. https://thecabe.com/forum/threads/snyder-rollfast-hawthorne-zep-banana-tank.128864/

They used horizontal gills from 38 on Rollfast bikes, but I don't think the horizontal gills were used on Hawthorne bikes period, and make sure you don't end up buying a CWC banana tank, because it's not gonna fit.

Okay, I see you two have already gotten together on this. I'm still interested in buying your Shelby tank, meanwhile.
