Iver Johnson Issued Tools 1896

[Rusty McNickel]

Greeting All,

According to their 1896 & 97 catalogs and perhaps later years, IJ issued tools in a kit with each bicycle. Does anyone know specifically what tools were provided?

Thanks....

a adjustable wrench is one of the tools.

There was a bottom bracket tool and a screwdriver as well.
I believe Ivrjhnsn has one of the bottom bracket tools.
This is a photo he posted awhile back.

Thanks to all responses. The list is as suspected except for the bb spanner. It likely is a later issue. There is nothing on my '96 that would interface with that. In fact the exposed bb races are knurled/notched and fixed to rotate with the crank arms.

Cheers!
