My "New" Western Flyer Strato Flyer

-

CURTIS L LINDGREN

I live for the CABE
Hello Everyone,
Got a Strato Flyer a little while back ( A Few Months Ago ) Got it shipped to me from Alabama. From the second owner . It was in his house for the last 25 or so years , and was VERY dusty and Dirty. I spent about a week completely disassembling it , then polishing up the chrome. ( Still have more to do on chrome ) put new tubes and tires , chain , Hub Caps and Speedometer on it . Front bezel was damaged in shipping , so I got a replacement from Shawn at Vintage Spokes. Single speed , middleweight and cool as Chit ! I have mostly balooners, but this bike is really a work of art. If any of ya have a rear light set up for this , I need one. I hope you enjoy the pic's. Ride Safe . Curt

Very cool Curt. I've never seen that type of rear rack with "rat trap" before.

It looks to be a "Stock" item Rat Trap , has the little black rubber bumper stop. It can be lifted almost straight up. I have never seen a strato flyer other than mine ( except in pictures ) I thought the rat trap was cool when the bike came to me and it actually worked . just saw the ad ................how cool is that !
