One day I get a phone call from a guy who rescued a bike in an old building. He is curious about value. I find some info and give a fair acessment. So i ask, how much? He counters with what will you pay? Ugh! He gives me a high number and I thank him. Weeks pass and I cant stop thinking about her. I reach out and we strike a deal! I drove 6.5 hrs in rain, wind and fog. I ended up disassembling her and tucked in the back seat.
It has 28” metal clad wheels with a 20” frame size. Bone stock! Has the original clip for the pump. What made me sure it was a 1925 was the Torrington stamped in the pedal rubbers. ND rear hub and IJ front hub. Whats new to me is it says “Mobicycle” on the bottom tube instead of Iver Johnson. Anyone seen that on a frame? Any and all info is appreciated! SN is 433329.
Cant wait to strip it down and repaint it! Lol. I kid!
