Tino

Finally riding a big boys bike
Hi guys, I am not sure what I have here. The fenders and wheels are not original to the bike. It is badged as a Hawthorne but it might not be original to the bike either as the rest seems pieced together. The sprocket is a Fauber special. I am hoping somebody can identify the frame and fork based on the following pictures. Thanks Tino

Fork definitely Excellsior! Probably repaint but Excellsior known for green paint schemes.
 
This is my Michigan City Excelsior mid 20’s. Paint on your bike definitely looks to me like it was repainted at some point?

Only a guess but seems to me that the badge might be correct on an older fix up. Especially if badge holes line up properly. What are the chances you would have found another to fit perfectly back in the day? Just my thoughts...
 
Other guys know much more than I do about these bikes but my guess is that it is what it says it is? Aside from some switched out parts.

This picture is off the net, probably belongs to a CABE member. 1925 I think, not exactly like yours but close. Someone else here will know for sure. Keep investing, that is part of the fun. Good luck!
