Cruisin' on my Bluebird
Carlitos, you may be on to the code. Could the 18 in my serial number #180173 be 1918, built in Buffalo? Could the serial number system have changed when the company reorganized and the name was changed in 1908?
Is that a Victorian cast door bell on the back mounted under the seat? How is it mounted and used? I have a nice cast door bell in the same style, it would make a cool bike bell.

Hi Gary,
I'm hoping the serial number mystery can be decoded at some point, but to answer your second question, the story told was that it was used as a pace bike on the track and this was a lap bell clamped to the frame. Not sure how true it is but that's all I got and I'm stickin' to it! The bell has an amazing loud and clear ring to it.
