Snyder moto bike finished

[The classic roll]

My Snyder moto bike I’ve been working on for about 2 months. Gave it a worn paint look on all the paint details because that’s what I like. Now I just have to wait till tomorrow to ride it for the first time. I’ll have to get some outdoor pics of it also. Can’t wait for the maiden voyage.

Sure is nice to get em' rolling. I like how the pins and paint look after getting worn a bit.

Thanks Balloonoob took some 1500 grit 3m wet sand paper to it.

Nice bike.
I have seen these peculiar Snyder-built frames, with the solid, straight and pencil-thin bridge at the seat stays (versus curved sheet-metal), mostly on Montgomery Ward bicycles (e.g., Trail Blazer); and we see the Hawthorne 8-points snowflake pattern chain ring sprocket.

Does the frame have any serial number identification to help better understand when these peculiar frames were built?

Hi guys trying to figure this bicycle out I’ve had it for a long time and finally started working on it. I got it at a flea market no head badge. Seems to be a roll fast with the design of the chain ring. Bottom bracket is only stamped with R. The stem is stamped with XX5 on one side and a 2 on...

Oh, I see it there.

I always thought it would be cool to get the new wheels woodgrained on a bike that had them originally.

That is a great job you did. Your bike looks awesome! Looking forward to seeing some pictures once you get it outside in the better light!

Boy thats real nice! Imagine that thing with a set of blue fenders with that same gold accent down the middle. Sure would be beautiful!

Looks good tcr! The old becomes relevant after sitting unloved and lonely for I am sure many years. I am also sure that you have been enjoying it while spinning on those nice wheels. Thank you for saving it and doing such a nice job.
