It's here! 62 heavy duty wasp

[Casual dreamer]

I found this one on ebay and couldn't resist! "The newsboy special" complete with the 7000 seat, bendix model k front hub, .120 spokes, I love it! I really like the monstrous goodyear studded tread tires, they are huge! Hope I can find another nice set! Has a kool Oak park Michigan bicycle license on the rear fender.

This ones pretty clean, just a minor tune-up and it will be ready to ride!

I missed out on an early '60's Heavy Duty Wasp a couple of years ago. I mentally give myself a little kick in the rear every time I see a nice one.

Is it a middleweight or a balloon?

The Wasp was the last of the real Ballooners.

These big pigs are badass and they are great riders. Nice snag.
