Found the only printed info on my Nonpareil balooner that I've ever seen. Ebay ad number 310866725823 Apparently sold by the Shapleigh Hardware company from St Louis MO, anyone else have printed info? rick
Yes I understood about manton and smith connection but this ad shows the chainring and trussrods i have that are nothing like any m and s stuff I've seen so far. Kinda looking for more Nonpareil paperwork as I think my bike may be older than 1942 shown in ad. This ad is a page from a Shapleigh Hardware store. thanks for reply Rick
hey rick. these bikes are hard to figure out,nonpareil,shapleigh etc.i didnt know about manton and smith and didnt know they were related to these st louis hardware chain bikes.i had a nonpareil girls bike years ago and never really did find out who made it.i now have a shapleigh rugby wood rim 28'' that is another msystery to me.i heard davis sewing,westfield,maybe mead made it,know one seems to know.anyway,can you post a pic of yours? love to see it.take care,rob.
rob, i have a few pics of the bike in this forum search nonpareil they will come up. connection to manton and smith assumed account of welds at joints. it is currently on the workstand. rick
