snapped a quick pic of Opie and Goober fiddling with Opie's bike. can anyone ID it?

 

[Rivnut]

I think this is the same bike. Here's a picture that shows the chain guard and the "star" chain ring.

An AMF built. In this episode it's called an "International Flyer."

Andy bought him a new bike for bringing home a report card with straight A's!!! But there was a mixup.....:eek:

However in this episode, the kid talking to Opie is the owner of the bike. He gets into trouble for riding it on the sidewalk. Then he convinces Opie that he's being taken advantage of because he works for an allowance. In the end the kid loses his bike and his father introduces him to "a good old fashioned wood shed."

The Andy Griffith Show, Season 3, Episode 21. First aired Feburary 18, 1963. "Opie and the spoiled kid."

I wonder if Andy would have given Barney a bullet, if he explained why he needed to shoot that kid.

Nah, the bell was there along with the horn. Opie took the horn off so he could pump his girlfriend on the bars.
